A CO2 pressure gauge isn't very useful. It shows about the same pressure all the time, until you are SUPER low, and then it drops fast. As another poster said, there could be temperature variants too.

Unless it is critical that you never run out of gas, I would skip the gauge, and just refill when you are out.

Lastly note that you can track CO2 use by the weight of the cylinder. Weigh it when it is full, then again every month or two, and you will get an idea of how fast you are going through it.

Oh, edit to add: consider ditching the Soda Stream entirely. Get a real CO2 regulator, and use a "carbonation cap" on a 1L or 2L bottle. Using soda bottles is going to be way cheaper than using SodaStream bottles, and you can carb larger volumes.

Do you ever plan on doing 5 gallon batches? If you have the space it will be more cost effective to just go for a full size keging system. Mini kegs are going to cost you roughly what a new 5 gallon keg will.

That said if it's only a one-off thing you could use some 2 liter bottles and get yourself a co2 tank and regulator and a carbonation cap and force carb that way, it won't be on "tap" but it will be force carbonated.. and you can keep it carbonated if you leave the cap on and top off the bottle with co2 each time you pour from it.


If you have nothing then you'll need a regulator I have this one: (taprite t742hp primary double gauge co2 regulator, brass https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002UZUJ22/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_auBCDbBPZ3V0H)

A co2 tank, something like this: (5lb co2 tank- new aluminum cylinder with cga320 valve https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HQQ3WWE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_BvBCDbXPB33KP)

Some 5/16 tubing l, and a ball lock gas disconnect like this (5/16" gas line assembly - ball lock https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0064OI77Y/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_6wBCDbSWZWMNY)

And a carbonation cap like this : (stainless carbonation cap counter pressure bottle filling with 5/16" barb,co2 coupling to carbonate soda beer fruit juice water https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01K4GGYT0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_BxBCDbK0V3J35)




I also have this regulator for my mobile mini keg set-up: Ultimate CO2 Regulator works with 5 types of CO2 tanks (0-50psi) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071J9FKVD/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_nABCDbQWF87S3
It works great and I use it with a soda stream co2 tank which are a little pricey for how much co2 you get but they're convenient and available everywhere. This makes a nice compact system since you don't have the big regulator and big co2 tank.

I wouldn't drill the lid for a thermowell and ball lock port. There are a combo action of items on Amazon you could get and utilize the bung hole that already exists.

Drill a 1/4" hole in the undrilled stopper for the carb cap and you have a ball lock connector.

The bung with the thermowell works great on my anvil fermenters.

u/NonaSuomi282 · 3 pointsr/worldnews

Not so much a commercial product as putting together a DIY system. A 5lb CO2 tank (or larger if you like), a regulator valve (example), a ball lock disconnect (example), one or more carbonator caps (example), and some simple 5/16 ID tubing and hose clamps like you can pick up from any hardware store to hook it all together. There's tutorials online, and you can make them a bit fancier if you like, but that's the gist of it.

u/pricelessbrew · 2 pointsr/Homebrewing

Can anyone recommend a particular carbonation cap? I'll be grabbing 1-3 of these for nearly continuous use. I'm hoping that I can still use my kegs for aging/storing the beer, then filling a bottle up and put 1-3 of them in the fridge and ditching my kegerator for a few years.

u/rrenaud · 2 pointsr/Homebrewing

If you are willing to look worse but have a much better solution than filling growlers from the keg, use plastic soda bottles (or seltzer bottles, same thing), and get one of these.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01K4GGYT0/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

You can connect the gas and liquid line to it. First crunch the bottle, then fill with CO2. Remove the gas connect, then connect to the keg
using a liquid to tube to another liquid connect (also good for doing keg to keg transfers/blends), and then gently unscrew. As a bit of pressure is released, the liquid will fill the bottle.

You can do a counter pressure fill, which means you lose very little CO2, and get very little O2 exposure.

Non-homebrewers think plastic bottles look a little sketchy. Homebrewers appreciate the simplicity/technical advantages/well carbonated beer.

u/romario77 · 2 pointsr/Homebrewing

If you really want to be cheap you could get carb cap that fits a plastic bottle like this one:

https://www.amazon.com/Stainless-Carbonation-Pressure-Barb,CO2-Carbonate/dp/B01K4GGYT0

You would need to have CO2 and connector to fit on it though. The benefit is that you could carb all your beer this way and you could actually give bottles away (just replace the cap with a plastic one once it settles)

u/tinystatemachine · 2 pointsr/Homebrewing

I use a short piece of tube from a drilled stopper to the barb on $10 ball lock soda bottle carb cap:

\> want siphonless


Buy this kit: https://www.morebeer.com/products/sterile-siphon-starter-smooth-neck-carboys.html

Get a CO2 tank, and a gas-to-barb adapter and use that rather than blowing
Place carboy higher than target destination (e.g. on two milk crates), so you don't need to pressurize the container (much) to move the liquid, only enough to prime the siphon line

Now you're pressure-started gravity racking. No more dealing with autosiphons. No oxidation because you're filling the void with CO2. Bonus points if you flush the target container as well/go into a purged keg.


I really dislike spigots on plastic or glass fermenters.

u/123rdb · 1 pointr/Homebrewing

My favorite is option 3.

With these you can even bottle from a warm keg to check how carbonation is going or how well a beer is aging. It's also nice for transporting beer. Instead of using a growler that will oxidize easily, just purge a 1 or 2L bottle and counter-pressure fill it. Only big drawback is you can't use them for competition beer.

u/otterfish · 1 pointr/cider

Hey, this might not be what you're looking for, but it's a pretty good solution, and cheaper than a keg.

u/skitzo2000 · 1 pointr/Homebrewing

I highly recommend one of these.

I use the exact same setup, but with the addition of the carb cab, I don't even have to remove the quick disconnect. you can use it to run cleaner either way thru the outlet, or inlet. Its all up to you.

u/bluespringsbeer · 1 pointr/Homebrewing

It definitely needs to be pressurized half way through. I use a stainless carbonation cap (like this one https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01K4GGYT0/) and a 2L soda bottle. You can put a “dip tube” in it using a piece of beer line, but it won’t dispense all the way out without having extra gas added.

Btw this thing is made in such a way that it takes gas and beer line, but it may leak slightly if the gas line is left attached.

u/CaptnSpalding · 1 pointr/Homebrewing

Cool. For about $10 you can get a carbonation cap. It will carb up a water bottle in about 30 seconds. I know my son can't wait for it to carbonate up, so we use this for a few small taste tests.
