Brass ball valves are easy to weld and are lightweight. They are used for conveying gaseous fluids, food processing, swimming pools, and desalination plants. Stainless steel ball valves are also common. However, they are less malleable than brass.
A keg coupler is the most important component of a kegerator. This device allows compressed air to enter a keg and push out beer. Choosing the right coupler for your kegerator can make a big difference in how well your beer is served.
Depending on your beer style and location, you may need to use different pressures to serve the beer. Too much or too little pressure can lead to foamy or flat beer. When you buy a keg, choose a keg with a pressure gauge that is recommended for serving.
Next, attach a gas line to the "gas in" port of your coupler. Make sure to turn the valve on your CO2 cylinder on. Then, pull the handle of your coupler downward and engage the coupler.
Once engaged, turn the coupler clockwise and 25 degrees. It should be located about a half inch above the ground. If the coupler is too far away from the ground, you will need to place it on a level surface.
Unlike steel ball valves, brass ball valves are easy to cast. They are also available in a variety of sizes. Compared to steel, brass is easier to weld and is lighter. Whether you're installing a piping system, repairing a leak, or simply looking for a way to enhance your beer, consider a brass ball valve.
