Regulator Accessories And Replacement Parts

When you are ready to start dispensing your homebrew from a keg you will need to build a draft beer system. One of the components in this system is a regulator. It works with other parts to ensure the correct amount of pressure is being used when dispensing your beer. Without the regulator, the pressure from the gas tank will be immensely strong thus making it difficult to dispense the homebrew.

Homebrewers who are still testing the waters can opt for a single gauge regulator that dispenses beer to only 1 faucet. However, if you want to effectively dispense more than one homebrew keg simultaneously using 1 gas source and different pressure, then getting regulator with multiple outputs is a better option, so that the individual pressure can be changed depending on what is in your keg.

On the other hand, if your keg has a problem maintaining the same pressure, you may need to use a secondary regulator. A secondary regulator can run more than five kegs from another gas tank. Whether you get a secondary regulator or not, the pressure should be maintained between 10 and 15 PSI for carbon dioxide tanks while nitrogen tanks should have a pressure between 30 and 40 PSI.

A regulator might be small but it can perform its functions for a long time. Make sure that the gas tank is always kept upright otherwise it can damage the regulator which can temporarily affect the dispensing capabilities of your draft system until you find a replacement.
