Corny Keg Carbonation

[CoxyBoy123]

I am buying a corny off of Moley (Cheers)

This is going to be kept in a fridge but in my cellar. I am going to be using everynow and again at my girlfriends dads house, who has a hand pump. Can you please advise what equipment I need to get beer through the handpump?

Also, when using at home, in ale, I dont really want any carbonation in my beer, is this possible? just enough gas to get the beer out?

Can a sprinkler be fitted to a tap for a corny?

IF no to the above, I will just put my belgium stuff in there

hi coxyboy …

right here goes …

yes u can get a sprinkler tap for a corny ( check keg works on google for corny extras )

yes u can control the carb with the psi on a gas cylinder … more turn up or less turn down … simples

right in-laws-pump … if u got a push-fit guest fitting on ur corny and his pump has a push fit fitting then as long as the fittings (pipe) is the same size (theres loads of sizes depending where pump came from , age , etc) the all u would need is a piece of tubing the same size to connect the 2 together … u would also need to gas the corny either with his gas (if he has any) or by a portable cylinder+reg ( unless its a manual pump then no gas needed )

Can I serve the beer flat then with just enough gas to get the beer out?

I just want to serve pup beer rather than carbonated

So unless I hook it up to a hand pump, I am going to put my Belgians in it.


What should I carb at and how long for at 15 degrees? Also what serving psi
