    Secondary mini regulator or valve for pouring pressure

    Hi There Wondering what the best way to maintain pouring pressure on kegs. I am researching spunding type, although more for fermentation and inline valves. I am fing it hard to set 2 or 3 psi on main reg. I once got blow back full of beer and has never been the same for small changes, works...

    Yeast stalled - Coopers Kit and Kilo

    yes I thought the same, I am thinking next time before I put in yeast to get a stick blender :) then when off, add in yeast to work while whirlpool going. The agitation or mix with water hose helps, but you cannot see the sides with water measurement. I have just realised this is the 2nd time it...

    It’s bubbling now. I’m convinced it’s the agitation/ oxygen in wort as above comment .. ?

    Yeast stalled - Coopers Kit and Kilo

    Thanks, the bubbler is doing absolutely nothing. What if I give fermenter and good shake? Would that be the same? Normally when I put the water in I use a hose and there are a lot bubbles aka agitation. This time I let the water run down the side and very little agitation. I wonder if that has...

    Yeast stalled - Coopers Kit and Kilo

    My yeast has not yet bubbling and by this time, next morning after. I have tasted, does not taste off. I can only think the yeast was not transported well ie on truck in sun? Or I was thinking my sanitizer is maybe old and maybe not right inside. I’m not a fan of adding another yeast because I...

    Stainless storage / fermenter.

    I already have SS, looking for someone else, but this is a lot cheaper. I have used SS for a while and I think it is better. I think I had a few off ones with plastic, but not sure if it was that. I have the mangrove jacks, and lid comes off and very easy to clean. Which probably helps.

    Stainless storage / fermenter.

    Hi Has anyone used these kegs? Apparently they don’t have hole for bubbler, but you can drill one to use as fermenter. Has anyone done that? Is there another way. Ad actually says fermenter and storage. Can be used for racking as well, if don’t drill hole or get 2 lids. ? Thanks

    I have just seen another site, Reg is 1.5 KG, I think these are estimates for shipping, I think I will have to weigh unless anyone knows.

    Average weight of a regulator to work out gas left.

    If I use 24 and 19, still is a difference of 5 (used?) 6-5 =1 KG left ? Ordered 2 years ago, I am sure I got more out 2.6 KG bottle, or close. I hope maths is wrong... I guess you dont know if you have a very very slow leak, that can hardly be found. That is why I like to have the gas off...
