    Hi guys Sorry if this is a nooby question but thought i better ask before wasting my money. I have a Langco Florite urn I picked up off gumtree which I want to replace the tap with a ball valve (sight glass made it leak and it just seems easier than cleaning it all) I have measured the tap...

    Lager Advice - Doing It Properly, Recipe Suggestions

    Kegging Confusion

    Hi guys Once again a kegging question. The search function is a bit hard to find things so I really do apologise if this has been asked many times.

    Sorry Another Keg Question

    Hi guys I tried the 'Ross method' of carbonating but with the gas in the IN port and rolling on its side. I did this a couple of times, once for the 50 seconds and again for around 30. After the first time I realised that my regulator would simply return to zero pressure once I switched off...
