Hi guys-
Anyone out there know how to set up an old-style Perlick Gas Blender? I scored a brand new one for free, but it didn't come with any instructions. This one is model 664B and has adjustable inlets for Co2 and Nitrogen. So far my Google-fu hasn't turned up any useful info.
I'll probably only ever use it with my '80s era Guinness faucet, so once I set the percentages I won't change it. It measures the proportions in SCFH for each, so I'm thinking I'll need to hook it up then blow the outlet wide open to adjust, but on my small scale that would waste a lot of gas. If there's a way I can do it without wasting gas I'd rather go that route.
And please don't just say it's easier to get premix. I already have everything I need, and I'd like to get this working, if for no other reason than the factor. Besides, there's a chance I may have to start pushing beer over 40+ feet next year, and this will be perfect for that if I can get it figured out.
Thanks-
MrH
