    Kwg PSI problem

    Hi Guys, I've had my kegerator for about a year and never any issues. Anyways, I put a new keg on two nights ago. Anyways I usually put the pressure at about 12 psi. When I installed the new keg I rotated the dial on the regulator. I got it as high as possible and it would only get to 12psi...

    Best under counter fridge that fits Corny's

    Hi all. I've not done any home brewing for a while and looking to get back into it. Planning to stack 2 fridges (fermentation chamber and dispense) on top of each other in my shed (I'm short of space) Are there any modern undercounted fridges someone could recommend that fit a couple of...

    Equipment For Sale 19l corny keg - unused -Notts - £35

    Hi all, I messed up on a recent malt miller order and got a 19l reconditioned corny keg. Problem being I needed a 12l one as 19 doesn't fit my kegerator! So... Rather than faff around with returning and getting a new one and the costs that'll incur, I'm going to cut my losses here and offer a...

    Clear beer

    Having recently kegged a brew and bottled the excess I had to have a quick check at the weekend. The beer from the keg resting in the fridge is gently carbonating to serving pressure, but remains far from clear. The beer in the bottles is in a dark warm cupboard and is crystal clear and, from...

    Dark Farm Keg dispenser

    Hi Guys, I am looking to step into the kegging world to reduce brewing time through forced carbonation, specifically looking at the dark farm keg dispenser system. Looks simple and easy to use but relatively expensive. wondered if anyone has any thoughts on whether this is the best system out...

    Corny Keg Beer Post Leak

    Hi All, I have a corny keg which is leaking from the beer out post. I have replaced the o-rings, as well as having removed the posts and cleaned them. I have also tried PTFE tape on the thread of the post, but still getting a very visible leak when i spray with sanitiser. Any ideas/tips...

    Closed loop transfer + natural carbonation?

    Hi all, I am looking to start doing a closed loop transfer from fermenter to keg. But, I don't like force carbonating my beers - I prefer to naturally carbonate. As the whole point in closed transferring is to minimise oxygen, I don't want to open up the fermenter and mix the priming...

    Pressure Barrels - More than you wanted to know!

    Introduction I use quite a few bottom-tap King Keg pressure barrels and I have very few problems with them. From discussions on the forum though it’s clear that many people do struggle with pressure barrels so I thought I might put together a few thoughts you might find useful. Although I...

    Chorley Gas

    Hi, I'm looking to use a corny keg for the first and I've bought one and a regulator from Malt Miller. Sourcing gas locally has been harder than expected/impossible. Chorley Gas seem to look decent but just wanted to check peoples' thoughts before I go ahead and buy. I don't live local to them...

    Replacing a broken regulator

    Hey folks, I got a brand-new Co2 cylinder yesterday and test-ran it by attaching a previously faulty regulator (bad idea), and while confirming that the cylinder is working perfectly, my regulator confirmed it’s buggered. I’ve never had to remove a regulator from a cylinder with loads of Co2...

    PSI levels in King Keg

    Hey guys, I finally feel I've got my King Keg as airtight as can be. I have fitted a pressure gauge and it isn't showing any leaks, so feel very pleased. I barrelled a NEIPA yesterday, primed it and injected a CO2 bulb too just because I know this beer type needs a little extra love. My...

    Corny Keg Refill

    Just by chance I have a coffee stout that's ready to keg and one of my kegs has just ran out that had a coffee porter in. Now this might cause an argument with the sanitation police but is there any real harm in kegging my stout straight into this keg without cleaning the keg with oxi and then...

    Kegorator or Keezer

    Hi, I know there is a fair bit of discussion about theese, I have read a lot of it but still can't make up my mind. So all my fittings have turned up and despite scouring the internet and local shops I can't seem to find a second hand fridge or freezer that satisfies what I want. Starting...

    Clarity...

    Gents, here's one which is a little bit of a head-scratcher... Kegged a lager a few weeks back which was the clearest beer I've made to date; gently racking from the top and did a very good job if I don't say so myself:laugh8: This one I was extra cautious about as to bring nothing but beer...

    Cornu keg connections

    To help with my first all grain brew, I got bought a brewuk corny kit (https://www.brewuk.co.uk/cornelius-1keg-starter-set.html) But it comes with no instructions, except how to connect the regulator to the CO2 bottle. Everyone everywhere seems to just know how this works. Is there a guide...

    Advice/reassurance needed

    I’ve been a bit of a plonker. I grabbed a top tap king keg of freecycle and was ever so pleased with myself until just now when I’ve racked my x-mas beer into it to find that the tap is leaking. It’s a twisty tap and turns out the rubber/plastic inside the nozzle is to pieces (not a...

    Coupler check valve and pressure inside keg

    Cheers. I am currently force-carbonating my first keg of ale (20L), and after around 10 days I would like to have an accurate view of how much pressure is inside the keg (at 5ºC), just to make sure I have reached my carbonation goal. I read and saw videos of brewers simply shutting the main...

    Which Keg is best?

    Afternoon all After a year of brewing I have just branched out to increase my capacity- now up to 8 Gallons. So thinking I will bottle part of my new first batch and keg the rest. Now kegging is new to me and it seems there are two choices: plastic keg vs Corny Keg and Sugar primed vs CO2...
