co2

As the latest CO2 crisis hit the UK I turn my thoughts back to 'There must be a better way to dispense beverages than rely on bulk CO2 cylinders'. Getting beer from my cellar to the taps is a simple enough operation pushed by regulated CO2 I normally get from various local suppliers. This week...

Hi folks, I'm quite new to using corny kegs, I have done about 4 brews in them, but up to now I added priming sugar and naturally carbed my beer before connecting to the co2 to serve (only 1 co2 so 1 keg can be carbing while the other is used to serve) I have decided to force carb my current...

Greetings from SW Brum! Having gone on the journey from kits to AIO electric, and updgraded bits of kit here and there, I've finally got mylsef a keg...and now I need gas, and I have no idea where to get it, so any help from any local keggers would be most welcome! Thanks, pstils

The reboot is never as good as the original. And I know this has been asked so many times. I'm here for a discussion about the following. I kind of wish this subject had previously received a definitive answer to the question. (I think it's important to say I'm in the UK and have access to...

Hi all, I can't get a hold of a gas cylinder at all. Those that do usually sell them are only doing refills no new purchases. I did have a contact who said he could get me one but he's been unreliable up to now. Do any brewers in Newcastle-upon-Tyne or the North East have any spare I could buy...

I transferred 36 pints of Munton's Directors into my King Keg 4 days ago. The previous batch I used the KK for (Festival Landlord) was quite flat from the start (I reprimed it and suspected a leaky seal so I've fitted new o ring, put vaseline around the seal.) For this new batch, I've also added...

Hi guys. I was sendt this little piece of kit and would like to share it with you. If you ever wondered how to bottle from a keg or from a fermentasaurus/fermzilla this is a great way to do so. I made a video, which i posted on my new youtube chanel. SmallSpacesBrewing. Hope you guys check it...

Hey folks, I got a brand-new Co2 cylinder yesterday and test-ran it by attaching a previously faulty regulator (bad idea), and while confirming that the cylinder is working perfectly, my regulator confirmed it’s buggered. I’ve never had to remove a regulator from a cylinder with loads of Co2...

Hi Everyone, I've recently purchased a new Klarstein Skal beer dispenser, but have been having issues getting it to work correctly. When I pull the tap, I get about 200mls of beer, at a slowish rate into the glass, and then it stops. I then have to wait about 30 minutes with the CO2 knob...

Hi all, I've searched this forum and a number of homebrew supplier web sites, but can't find the answer to a couple of questions. I'm a newbie and would really appreciate a word of advice from those more knowledgeable than me! With a pinless S30 valve fitted to my 5l plastic keg, what Co2...

Ordered a 2nd corny today, this time with a CO2 regulator for "pub gas" bottles. Also ordered a heat belt and a carbonation cap. The heat belt because my room is around 18c and the carbonation cap so friends can take a few bottles of my brews home. It was difficult to find pub gas suppliers...

I'm trying to connect my new SS Brewtech Brite Tank (10 gallon size) to a CO2 cylinder. What I thought would be a simple affair is anything but. The CO2 regulator I have came with a John Guest 3/8 connector: https://www.themaltmiller.co.uk/product/premium-co2-regulator/ I'm using this line...

I've been wanting to upgrade my no-name-might-be-leaking-a-bit two-product regulator to something with a bit more quality to it so I started to do a bit of research and found almost nothing available in the UK. Over in the US on amazon.com you can easily get two-product regulators and even...

Hello all, this is my first post acheers. I am on only my second brew now.. the first was a wort in a can job which tasted.. OK.. but obviously not good enough to give me the brew bug as it that was about 4 years ago!!! A few weeks ago I stumbled on my old brew bin and plastic keg in my shed...

Can anyone recommend any places in Leeds where I can get my 3KG CO2 cylinder refilled and how much it would cost?

Looking for advice, I'm setting up a kegerator in a wardrobe in my bedroom and want to use it for fermentation, but limit or remove the smell issue. I was thinking of using one 19L corny to ferment in, with the CO2 produced by fermentation going into a second 19L corny. I'd then be able to vent...

Hi all, A bit of a curious thing. I put on a full grain brew on Sunday which went into the fermenter on Sunday evening. OG 1045, current gravity around 1035 - so far so expected you might think. However, I'm seeing absolutely NO activity in the airlock. There is a decent head of foam on the...

Hi all, At the moment I'm using a few more CO2 bulbs than expected and it's a bit of a pain to keep pressure on the keg. One or two of my neighbours have suggested putting a car tyre valve on the keg and pumping it up with a car tyre pump. What do folk think about that? Is it feasible?

Anyone know where these can be sourced cheap? Planning taking two cornies to a work do later in the year as I don't really want to fill 60+ bottles from them. My CO2 tank is quite large and cumbersome so I'd rather leave that at home. I was thinking a soda Stream cylinder would be portable...

Hello everyone, Would like to know if anyone has the 3.15kg CO2 cylinder from BOC? https://www.boconline.co.uk/shop/en/uk/gas/beer-gas-drinks-dispense-gas/suregas-cylinder-569 I plan on (hopefully) finding an undercounter fridge than can hold two 19L cornies and the CO2 cylinder. Does anyone...
