Britvic CO2 gas management board - query

Post by cerbera84 » Sat Dec 17, 2016 2:52 pm

Looking for a bit of help - I've had a Britvic gas board for a while now and i've mainly only had one keg connected at any one time. Currently i've got two cornys connected, and i'm looking at connecting a converted kingkeg as a third.

https://flic.kr/p/Qi7bD2 here's a photo of the board (hopefully it'll work...)

on the left, the corny keg is at 8psi
in the middle, the 2nd corny is force carbing at around 40psi
on the right will be a kingkeg at about 8psi

the gas comes in from the right hand side. is there a specific way these kegs should be ordered e.g. lowest pressures on right, highest on the left? or doesn't it matter?

Unlike the cola boards they are all individual and don't need to be cascaded. Just make sure that they are properly at 9 o'clock if you think you are turning them off

yes i use one of these and its basically 3 x primary regulators, all fed by the same bottle pressure feed.


if like mine the shut off valves are loose and easily positioned 'not=quite-off' i have dropped a bottle of co2 overnight due to a not quite off reg valve....
