I'm planning out a conical purchase and am having some trouble figuring out the best plan for CO2.
I know I want the ability to add CO2 for transferring, for pushing trub and my flocculant yeast out, and for taking samples without taking in air. It seems like the pressure gauges sold by the online shops are merely for monitoring the pressure, not actually relieving it.
I'm worried about over-pressurizing the conical and ruining it, and I've seen advice that the typical regulators we use for carbonating are not going to be precise enough to ensure you don't exceed 5psi.
Has anybody built a pressure relief valve that can reliably be set to vent excess pressure? Are my concerns unnecessary?
