Beer Gun +

Yeah Junk, I got to agree, that's very imaginative and I may have to copy that.

Man, that is a great idea! I love the army!

Tasty does fill straight from a tap, but I believe he also purges the bottles with CO2. You can fill straight from a tap without purging, but I suppose you would start to get oxidation notes pretty quickly.

Not doubting you brotha but I'm curious how that happens if you're replacing air with liquid?

He's talking about the O2 that the beer is picking up as the bottle is filling. By capping on foam you are eliminating the O2 in the headspace, but you will still pick up some O2 by filling a bottle that has normal air as opposed to CO2.

If you have been lurking, you know where I stand on this....

I love my Morebeer CP filler. I did switch out the barbs for flare fittings. All of my tubing has flare fittings anyway, it just makes hooking up the filler easier.

Junket,

Looks like you just run the gas to the gun without splitting to the keg as sugested by most shops that sell the gun (probably so they can sell you the splitter and hoses they offer for an extra price) Do you just pressurize the keg to the same pressure as your running to the gun and repressurize the keg as necissary? If so how many bottles can you fill without having to repressurize the keg?

I'm just curious as I have a beergun under my christmas tree and need to know if I need to go out and get a splitter to use the thing.

Thanks

I have another CO2 tank/regulator that I use to pressurize the keg, so yes, you'll need a splitter. I have done it the way that you suggest with one gas line, but it's a bit of a hassle, considering a splitter should probably be pretty cheap and painless.

Thanks I'll pick up a splitter.
