So I've not been kegging long and have set up my kegorator with the gas and regulator outside of fridge and hooked up to 2 kegs inside with gas line running through the wall of the fridge. The issue I have is I now have a fermzilla to ferment in and want to use a gas supply to purge/close transfer/rouse hops. My fermenter isn't close to the kegorator. Does anyone have an easy solution for disconnecting/reconnecting the gas or do i need a seperate gas bottle as this should be avoided?
Cheers in advance.
 
What way is the gas line connected to the regulator currently? If it's a push fit connection like Duotight or John Guest, you could just disconnect there and connect to a short hose with a ball lock disconnect on it.

Or just fish around Gumtree or similar for a second hand CO2 cylinder.
 
Seem like I am quoting Big Banana all the time recently, he showed he has a dedicated line running from his keezer to his fermentation fridge across room , so it's doable , just don't know how much gas you will waste within the long run.

O and if your wanting pipes and connectors I found buying a RO kit was a lot cheaper than any other option and came with lots of different joints and connections all John guest types.

I have a corny gas post mounted on the outside of my barrelator and a gas quick connect on the gas line from the cylinder regulator. Easy to disconnect the cylinder and reconnect.
