Sorry to crash the thread here and I know DIY my not be your forte Stagbrew but deep down it just maybe after all you have a desire to make your own top notch beer. How many brewers have already made a boiler from two kettles, a lever valve and a FV? and also use an STC-1000 to hold a fridge at...

Thanks chaps, I'm liking the tyre valve idea, I can see how easy burping the O2 would be plus I could use any tyre pressure gauge and I bet it's cheaper, I'll have a look on line before I choose. What an inventive bunch we are;-)

Hi folks, I know it's old chestnut, I was planning on holding back kegging my beer until I could do the job proper and invest in a corny or sanky set up. However I've been given a budget plastic pressure barrel. I want to connect to a FE and regulator I already have, I'm not trying to force...
