Hey mate, I'm fairly new also so take this with a pinch of salt but... Did you cold crash the FV prior to bottling? Reason I ask is because I did that and have run into the same problem... Still not carbed after 9 days.

Just measured it out and got 12 drops for a 6L. I'll prob go with 11 drops to be on the safe side! Cheers!

Good point! Didn't even think of that! Haha

Hey Guys, Recently bought 1 of the new style Tap a Draft systems which comes with 4 x 6L plastic kegs. I use carbonation drops and the instructions only talk about priming sugar. Does anyone know how many carb drops would go into 1 of these 6L kegs? Spoke to my local HBS and they said 10 for...

Perfect response, that's all I needed! Cheers

Hey Guys, I've done a fair bit of googling regarding this but there are so many conflicted statements, I'm a little confused. I've brewing a K&K of Aussie Draught beer. I had no airlock activity for 24 hours, then bubbling like mad for the next 24 and then again nothing for another 24 hours...

PM'd for 1 x 1Litre

Thanks man! I'll give them a call on Monday. Their website looked like it only hired out to corporate companies :S.

Haha my misses is back home in the UK now, might see if she can smuggle back an empty CO2 bottle ;)

Just found something on eBay which is pretty interesting! Hampdon food grade CO2 (2.2l) Regulator with flow meter 1m of hose. For $117.00 including delivery. Anyone know if that'll serve the purpose for force carbing a 10l keg?

Thanks for that. How long am I looking at for natural carbing? Do you have a link to an idiots guide to natural carbing a keg? Cheers

In all honesty, I would love to get a full C02 setup but since I'm only just getting into legging, it's a large investment. Plus a 10l keg would take me about 3-4 weeks to polish off. I might try this soda stream set up to start with and go from there. So do we think one of those 400gm C02's...

They look awesome! So they would definitely help with the pouring. So I guess my question, is there any way to force carb (set and leave method) without having a large c02 cylinder? Cheers

Thanks for all the input guys. Just on the Soda Stream topic, are those powerful enough to carb a 10litre keg and serve? How long would they last?
