I've been taking stock of my gas equipment, and it has left me confused.
For some reason, I have 4 5-lb. tanks. I thought I had three. I knew I had one beer gas tank and some CO2 tanks.
So, the beer gas tank and two of the CO2 tanks have female threads on the valves. The remaining CO2 tank has male threads. I thought I was down to one regulator, but it looks like I have three.
I don't remember everything about tanks and regulators. I have read that beer gas requires a different regulator, and that the tank always has a male thread. Here I am with a beer gas tank with a female thread.
I can tell which regulator I used for stout because it has only one tube connected. It looks like a plain old CO2 regulator to me.
Does anyone have any idea what's happening? Does anyone else have a CO2 tank with a male thread or a beer gas tank with a female thread? Do I really need a special beer gas regulator?
