Co2 and kegging

[Johnrogers]

Hello, I'm just about to start kegging oxebars. I've bought all the bits but I'm really unsure on Co2.
I've bought a regulator, but my question is what's to stop the gas from the bottle making the oxebar explode ? Yes I will only be using 12psi to pour and will probably turn the gas off overnight, but if I leave the gas on will it continue to deliver until the prv goes??
I'm reading about force carbing and leaving in the fridge at 40psi for a week, again will this continue to pressurise the oxebar??
Thanks guys

no its called a regulator cause it regulates the pressure in the tank .

it will not cause your oxebar to explode. it will not continue to increase pressure. and you shouldnt have to turn off the gas at night
the prv i beleive is 36 psi so yes 40 will casue it to give (as its supposed to )

you dont have to force carb so high. you can do it at 25 also.

oxebars are the best. you will love see through kegging
and they are light weight and cheap . and have graduated marks.

one thign that they dont say about oxebars but is a fact is that when you put them in the keezer they contract slighty and you have to tighten up the carb caps when cold or they will cause a leak otherwise.

Well I did think the regulator did that as it's fine in a pub without being turned off every night, but nobody nowhere has actually said that ! I've watched hundreds of youtube videos and found zilch ! Thanks for that , much appreciated.
