    Carbonated Water Keg

    Ok so maybe I bubba'd this pretty hard but got a heat gun out and made the bev seal fit over the 1/4" fitting lol. Looks like I have good pressure now. Still baffles me that these parts don't work like I thought they would.

    Carbonated Water Keg

    Ok seriously about to rip my hair out. I ordered the above, it says 1/4in draft beer tap tower shank. Am I seriously just not understanding how to order these parts? I have a 1/4" ID bevseal line I want to use and I just want the shank to have the correct diameter for the line. I tried...

    Carbonated Water Keg

    Thanks for those, I should have mentioned I found that 90 degree tail piece but when I dismantle my beer shank it is just one solid piece. I ordered some of the very swivel nuts you suggested but they don't seem like they're actually 3/16" which is super confusing (see the pic of all the...

    Carbonated Water Keg

    So I grabbed some different tubing and now no more leak issues, but I get a plastic/chemical taste in the water (obviously the lines because the previous lines did not introduce this flavor. Someone in the reviews mentioned the same, which now I wish I'd read. I started reading around other...

    Carbonated Water Keg

    Ahh I totally missed that. The website where I was looking at the shanks showed it as a 1/4" barb but the amazon link is different, ugh. Thanks!

    Carbonated Water Keg

    I have done carbonated water for a while using this 2L bottle attachment along with a 5lb CO2 bottle. I recently got a sankey keg for free so decided to try and get the stuff needed to make a more permanent CO2 water solution. I will manually fill the keg from a line/valve I have under my...
