My micromatic regulator is leaking out the vent hole. Have pulled it apart and as you see in pic attached, its clean as a whistle, however I did notice a bit of damage to this part? Would this be the issue and whats the cause? Obvious answer would be the reg has been wound in too much but ive...

Heres a pic of my pizza oven I just finished. Only used solid red bricks.

Had a red ale on tap from odyssey the other day and I was impressed. Got to agree with inconsistency with bottling though, got a 6 pack of pm chainsaw last year and was liking the first one yet next 4 were spoiled and last one was ok but still not as good as first one.

Sounds like over carbed and too short of beer line - system not balanced. Id say depressurise and try release all CO2 and try recarbing at ~75kPa for a couple of days. And maybe change beer line to 3m of 5mm. im no expert but i think it'd have to help, thats about what i run.

Saw this on eBay earlier today, might be what your after? http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/HOME-BREW-9-LITRE-KEG-REGULATOR-PLUTO-BEER-GAS-LINES-CONNECTORS-/330977874328?pt=AU_Barware&hash=item4d0fd19198&_uhb=1

Bugger, Looks like the info the local home brew shop gave me has led me up the wrong path royally! Will try again next week once i get some longer beer line.

i have a perlick 525SS tap. The hose is what fits the disconnects on the pin lock 19L kegs i have so i would have thought it was ok?

Thanks, ill give it a go. Did seem to pour pretty fast. I have 1m of 6mm line from keg to tap, is that enough? I have 2m on the gas line so i can swap them over? Ill keep at it, hopefully ill have it sorted (and not have drained the keg), so i can enjoy a few by the time footy starts!

I have just gone into kegging and have tried to tap my first keg but have seemed to run into a problem. All im pouring is milkshakes. As i do not want to waste a keg of beer trying to work out what i've done wrong i thought id throw it out there to see if someone can help me. The answer is...

how does the CO2 get out with glad wrap?
