Regulator

[Lewis88]

Hi all, have been brewing about two years and have now taken the plunge and bought a cornelius keg after about 3 all grain brews. My question is what do I need to look for when looking for a regulator? I have a fair bit of experience with compressed air but not co2. Is it just that it is the correct fitment for the cylinder and has pressure in gauge and regulated pressure out gauge or am I missing something? Just thought I'd check before buying an expensive door stop. Thanks guys.

I'm new to this too. This is what we need, though it's not currently in stock here:

I was Iooking at getting this one from eBay.... http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=291144460739&alt=web

Especially as I can collect from the seller and avoid the postage!

Have you checked it's corney compatible?

I followed an old link from here... https://broadfordbrewer.wordpress.com/2012/10/29/cornelius-keg-startup-kit/

About half way down, a guy called Jeff Rosenmeier says these are fine - you just need an adapter which the malt miller sells for £3.56

It all looks good, as far as I can tell!

OK, cheers for the info.

What are you planning on doing tap-wise?

I like the look of the chrome tap and disconnect as a tidy option with less line to worry about.

Gets mixed reviews though.

Bunglebrewsbeer spoke to someone who said that you actually need a length of line to stop the beer frothing. Hopefully he can explain more when he shows up.
