Scored..

Got 3 kegs and all the gear for a fridge setup.. paid $455 for it

Most around these parts wanted like 480 to 500 for 2 keg system

Cant wait for that first brew to be ready.. like a week n half to go

nice one. i recently got a 2 keg setup for $400. just finished my first keg yesterday. wasted alot trying to get it to pour right. my regulator goes all the way up to 800psi but i get the best pour at about 10psi so it's hardly registering on the gauge.

good luck and enjoy!

i run my kegs at 100kpa for charging when the keg is cold in the fridge, 4 deg C.. then 80kpa for pouring.

How are you charging em?
i have found letting them sit in the fridge at 100 for 3 days works quite well.. the trick is to get the temp of the beer in the kegs cold before you start.. 2 - 6 DegC

Altho.. i have just tried bulk priming the keg with 2/3 Cup white sugar and 2 Cup boiling water.. let cool to 20 degC.. then racking the beer into the keg.. put the CO2 to it and then burp the keg using the pressure relief valve.

You gotta burp all kegs to remove O2 and replace with CO2.
