I think my regulator is stuffed where can I send it to be checked out?
Thanking you in advance.

Whats wrong with the Regulator??

[wm460]

Late one night the keg was hooked up the wrong way and I got here in the regulator now the high pressure gauge doesn't work and you cannot move the adjustment knob.

That should read " beer in the regulator".

Fixed it for you.

Cheers,

The post or the reg??

Judging from the relative silence, I don't think there are too many who can fix a stuffed regulator - sorry...

A regulator is a piece of finely adjusted equipment and if faulty would need to be serviced by an expert in the field. With the high cost of labour today it would be more financially expedient to go out and buy a new one. Given the large ammount of energy contained in a CO2 cylinder akin to a loaded firearm I definitely would be chucking the faulty one and replacing it.

Thanks for the info, looks like I'm up for a new regulator and one of those valve's.

I had this happen to me last week. My first brew kegged. I overfilled the keg, connected to wrong valve.... was a bit worries, but no probs. All working.

Guess the beer god was looking after me.
