    Air In Tap Lines

    Top of the shopping list is some longer lines. 12 psi keeps the bubbles out, but the pouring pressure is too great. I have a newly aquired chest freezer with a Mashmaster digital temp controller coming, and I have a spare CPU fan floating around.............. Sounds like it wouldn't be a bad...

    Air In Tap Lines

    Paul, that does make sense and it was the thing I found was unusual. It does appear the Co2 is coming out of the beer. I did think though that the length of line I was using was correct when I used the calculations for balancing including the height above the keg I am using. But obviously...

    Guide To Keg Forced Carbonation.

    Thanks Scott. In my head i figured that when the reg is turned off, and if shaking the keg raises the presure (ie like shaking a soft drink can), it will feed back up the lines. As you explained though, unless I have a gas leak, there is no way it will. Got on to a good thread on here a little...

    Guide To Keg Forced Carbonation.

    Well, been reading intently over this thread. Lots of good info but all leads to more questions for one who has not kegged before now. (Bloody newbies..........) First and foremost, what is the indication of over carbonising? I understand a glass full on foam is a give away, but won't an...
