Evening everyone,hope you had a good day,
i had a pleasant evening,probably because one of my batches bottle carbd to 87%!
tasted damn good,thank you for all the help and advice.
if you will indulge me again,please?
so i watched some entertaining videos concerning carbonation and stumbled upon a local homebrewer also doing his thing, on youtube,lacks a bit experience,but had some good ideas.
he was basically showing how to use a cooler box to mash in,i already use that method.
but he was also adding a filter and a spigot tap,great stuff,i learned that.
.
but it dawned on me that i could carb into it!
the cooler box would be my keg.
i would fit a tube connected to my co2 that would be sealed (top and bottom) into the box,till the base of box,about a inch before it touches the bottom.
using my co2 tank fitted with regulator,it would directly pump co2 to the bottom,the bubbles would be forced to rise through the beer,providing the beloved carb.
providinng the seal to keep the lid airtight can be accomplished by using a pull clamp.
i know,i know,it sounds very DIY,but very limited finances and time constraints dictate the means...
hoping to hear constructive criticism.
as always,thank you.
