[@SirLithen]

5:15 Dude, I had no idea, thank you!! I thought my regulator was broken and was going insane trying to fix and troubleshoot it :D

[@HomeBrewNetwork]

Cheers mate!

[@petercatto9795]

Sorry to ask you dude but you were the only one of the answers me ,and you were the only one that help me make beer. now I can't drink beer anymore bottle shop beer. homebrew only and I do thank you for that..

[@HomeBrewNetwork]

No worries Peter, cheers mate!

[@jayjay20013455]

thank you for educating me on the regulator. First time kegger and I didn't have a clue how to set the psi 😄👍

[@HomeBrewNetwork]

No worries! Cheers mate!

[@Rapture_Rising]

I just bought a Mk4 reg and it is leaps and bounds better than my old generic LHBS one.

[@HuntsmanBrewing]

I just got one in the mail. Good to see you using the Fermentasaurus. Cheers mate.

[@HomeBrewNetwork]

They seem solid mate, cheers!

[@MaxLaRoccaTribe]

[@HomeBrewNetwork]

Any time! 😊

Panhead Brewery! their Supercharger is the best beer i have ever had on tap. Just starting to drink the all grain NEIPA now from your recipe it's awesome! I did however end up using Amarillo and Taheka/cascade hops for the late and dry hops due to a lack of citra.

[@HomeBrewNetwork]

Supercharger is a great brew, got a recipe building video for it here on my channel somewhere if you havent brewed it before, got the recipe outline from the brewer. Cheers mate!

[@mothox]

I really like the Panhead shirt. Cheers Gash. Bloody Legend 🍻

[@HomeBrewNetwork]

Thanks for watching mate, got the shirt from GABS, ong story, but anyway they were selling them there. Cheers!

[@Tastingnitch]

sweet new equipment - thank you for walking through it

[@HomeBrewNetwork]

Thank you for watching Nitch! :) Love your work, Cheers!

[@suiderkruisbrewers1998]

Great review short and sweet. Also got a new regulator recently. But are now looking to build a kegerator and I am looking for a regulating manifold. The Blowtie might just work for that.

[@KegLand]

Great review Gash!

[@aidanoconnor7299]

Got mine a few weeks ago and collected my CO2 cylinder today. I'm new to kegging and I'm looking forward to it. Thanks for all the tips, especially about which way to twist the regulator to release gas - I didn't look at the + and - directions on the valve and got it wrong and thought it was faulty as it kept releasing gas...rookie move!!!

[@rob5831]

Awesome info, thanks for the share Gav. Cheers mate.

[@HomeBrewNetwork]

Cheers Rob!

[@rradfod007]

Great video and good timing I need a new regulator myself I’ll be sure to order via your link 🍻

[@HomeBrewNetwork]

Thanks for watching mate, cheers!

[@StassBrewing]

Nice looking reg. Look forward to the blowtie vid

[@HomeBrewNetwork]

Cheers Stass! Check FB Messages if you happen to see this first!

[@housepark]

Cool vid Gash. New gadgets, better ways to brew! Cheers.

[@HomeBrewNetwork]

Thanks for watching mate, you home yet?

[@housepark]

@@HomeBrewNetwork no not yet. Back home Wednesday next week. 🤘🤘🍻🍻

[@namenameson8353]

Great video really useful thanks muchly

[@haydenkanzys8817]

cheers mate, good work

[@paulbehrens5842]

My micromatic regulator has been going strong since 2005. No leaks yet.

[@HomeBrewNetwork]

That was a cheap replacement gauge because I had knocked over the bottle a few years ago, and broke the original gauge. I think thats the issue, not sure how old that regulator is, it would be at least 5 or 6 years old. Cheers!

[@beefa5649]

Good one mate, I am also interested in how the blowtie valve goes, I've had my eye on them for a while, very happy to use your links, cheers

[@HomeBrewNetwork]

oops that was on the wrong comment, yeah I'm wanting to know too, cheers mate!

[@beefa5649]

All good never saw it cheers

[@cliffo76]

I've used the blowtie for 3 brews now and am very happy with how it works. Previously used other spunding valves and this is a solid bit of kit.

[@HomeBrewNetwork]

@@cliffo76 Just set it up half hour ago, seems to work perfectly. Cheers

[@Wind_Ninja_Jubei]

Cheers i dont need to order that often but when I do I will use your links. Is there plans for kegland sending you a Brewzilla to review.

[@HomeBrewNetwork]

There was. It was supposed to be here late December.. but looking more like February unfortunately. Cheers mate

[@munkeh365]

Thank you so much for this (Aware it's an older video). Kegland's videos are terrible. They make huge assumptions and don't actually show you how to use their products. Now, if someone can make a "How to pressure ferment using a Fermzilla for dummies", I'd appreciate it.

[@stirlingarcher2141]

I'm going to be placing an order for some gear from KegLand soon, but not for the stuff in your links. If I go to their site through one of your links will it still credit you with my purchases? And I must say I think you should have started the video with a heartfelt apology for not posting anything for over a MONTH!!! I didn't think KZbinrs were allowed to take a holiday :-0 LOL

[@HomeBrewNetwork]

Hahaha. School holidays, hard to get time! but yes it should, hang on I'll give you another one just in case. Here's a generic one, also the ad on cellar dweller page should work too. Thanks very much mate! www.kegland.com.au/?cmid=U1VxL0FMYmxTRzA9&afid=NHRQa2ViaTBnT0k9&ats=V2dpVFFYTmszWDA9

[@petercatto9795]

Hello gash, Peter I have a regulated it with bad as well? and I'm a sick f*** write down every amount of kegs the regulator, I used 600 kgs to a regulator? what do you think is an acceptable amount of kegs to go through a regulator?...

[@HomeBrewNetwork]

Carbing beer and serving beer you should get about 10 kegs at least out of the size bottle I have 2.6kg. Is that what you mean?

[@petercatto9795]

@@HomeBrewNetwork .I have a 6.8 kilo gas bottle, the regulator lasted about 600 kegs.Is that the average life of a regulator or do i have a faulty one?

[@HomeBrewNetwork]

Average life of a regulator is hard to judge mate, some last a long time, others don't. 600 kegs is a lot! Often you can replace the diaphragm if needed or just give it a service. They can be hard to open.

[@charleschapman2428]

Be careful using the Star San as a leak test or on anything metal that your're not going to rinse off, because it is acidic, the soap can also be alkaline, I would give it a spray with clan water. I also had a regulator go bad that let full pressure into a oxygen line, when the line blew I thought the tank itself blew, very loud.

[@HomeBrewNetwork]

Bugger! That must of sucked..Cheers Charles Thanks for watching!

[@charleschapman2428]

You can also add (sodium metasilicate) to your sodium per carbonate to make your own PBW . The PBW works a little better due to the (sodium metasilicate) . You can get it from a hardware store or amazom sells it in bags, I also get my sodium per carbonate from them, it's cheaper. Here is a link that gives some information on it. www.bertusbrewery.com/2012/11/super-charge-your-oxiclean.html

[@dabuzz67]

I suspected you might be a fitter. Can hear it in the way you talk about tech stuff.

[@HomeBrewNetwork]

Cheers mate!

[@t-8242]

My duotight stuff leaked like a sieve. Never again

[@HomeBrewNetwork]

Thats a bastard mate, these ones seem ok so far, all good on the blowtie. Cheers!
