Barely 1 Keg Out of Co2 Tank
Eric P

We bought a keg system and 5lb Co2 tank (Catalina 5 lb. Aluminum Co2 Tank [CC B5]) through BeverageFactory.com. Hooked it all up in a fridgerator along with the Co2 tank . We got a slim 1/4 barrel which took us about three weeks to go through. Then we purchased a 1/2 barrel but to our dismay our Co2 tank is empty. We sent BeverageFactory.com customer service a request asking for assistance/advice as to what our problem might be and never received any correspondence or help back. We have not able to identify any leaks and the system is hooked up per the instructions. The tank is refilled but unfortunately it is not going much better for the 1/2 barrel. We are honestly concerned that the tank won't even last this keg.

Hi Eric, thank you for your feedback. I'm sorry to hear about the lost tank of gas and I'm glad we were able to troubleshoot the system over the phone today. Based on our conversation, it seems the tank is working properly. As we discussed, the high pressure gauge on your regulator will drop when the tank is placed inside the refrigerator. This is normal because the cold temperature causes a drop in the tank pressure.You can always spray your connections with soapy water when you initially set up the system to ensure there are no slow leaks. Please feel free to call me directly if you have any other questions or need assistance with your system.

Best Regards,
Nick R.

Great quality
Jordan R.

Great quality tank, just writing this review to say that mine came branded with a big Kegco logo printed down one side. It came off fairly easily with a scotchbrite pad. Just something to consider if your tank exchange place wanted to be picky about that kind of thing. Other than that it was perfect.

Good for a year or so!
Crabby

Its hard to find solid info about how much you can really push with this size 5# tank. I am at fourteen (14) 1/6 kegs with my tank! And that is with the CO2 tank inside the fridge. I think I am at the end after this keg is finished.
Unless you dont want to deal with refilling it once year, I recommend this tank for its size and capacity! If once a year is too much, I suggest the next size up.

Question:
Will this be ok to be used for brewing nitro cold brew in my 5 gal keg?
by Beer Boss Bob on May 22, 2019

you must use a nitrogen tank if holding nitrogen. Nitrogen has a higher pressure rating.

Question:
How many 500ml bottles could i carbonate With one tank roughly?
by Beverage guy on July 02, 2020
Answer:
That's a very good question with a lot of variables. How are you carbonating, what volume of CO2, are you using CO2 to bottle, etc. Please call us at 800-710-9939 to discuss further!

Question:
Hi. How much does this tank weigh empty? And Is it dangerous to fill this tank with more than 5 lbs of co2? (my tank may have been overfilled)
by miss my beer on August 30, 2020
Answer:
These tanks should be roughly 7lbs empty, so a full tank should weigh roughly 12lbs. Overfilling is not recommended and is dangerous and could cause the burst disk to rupture.
