Hi

Is there any reason why i should not connect my plastic kegs to a co2 cylinder via a regulator like a corny.?and what is the best pressure to use on corny and plastic kegs.

Cheers steve
 
there is no reason to use c02 0n a plastic keg the pressure is dependent on which type of keg it is. Cornys usually pressurise at 20 psi dependant on which beer for a week to condition. Then dropped to 3 - 5 psi for dispensing
 
There is no reason you can do it. I think afew people on here do it as well. Make sure you start low on the pressure so not to blow it up! If you can get your keg cool then it will carbonate at lower pressures.

Just check what the PRV is set at and set it a couple of psi bellow that!
