Review on Taprite 12218 Dual Gauge Regulator by Ashley Varela

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Guide to getting the most out of it

love it. Works like a dream. You will need a couple of wrenches to attach and tighten this. Attach this regulator to the tank and use a hose clamp to connect the hose to it. The other end of the hose must have a quick connect to the regulator. Adjust psi to 30 and chill your liquids. To use, connect a hose to the carbonator cap and bottle (with a wrench), then turn on the tank and regulator. Hold for 30 seconds while shaking the liquid, keeping the bottle as low as possible to prevent backflow into the regulator. This leads to full carbonation. Then you need to turn off the tank, keep the control valve on, use a wrench to slowly unscrew the carbonizer cap from the bottle, then you can turn off the control valve. Closing the regulator valve while the system is pressurized will eventually foul your regulator with soda ash. 30 psi at 35 degrees Celsius uses cola. Perfect carbonation every time. If using carbonated water, remove the string with the saturator cap after each use and rinse the string several times with water to prevent yeast and mold growth. If you're carbonated water, simply turn on the gas a few times to remove the water from it.
