*PLEASE NOTE - DOES NOT INCLUDE KEG, TAP, REGULATOR OR DISCONNECT. ALSO PLEASE SEE THE NOTE BELOW FOR 1ST TIME USE!
This remote gas line is only compatible with the iKegger 2.0 Regulator. The iKegger 2.0 regulator comes with the pictured steel disconnect and a one-way valve in the box, these are not part of this package.
The remote gas line comes with the SodaStream Adapter. That is the one most people want in our years of experience. This allows using a 400g Sodastream gas bottle as a source of CO2 instead of disposable bulbs. These are available everywhere and cost $19 to swap at Woolies, Coles, Big W, Service stations, Kmart, IGA etc.
To expand on this, you can also add either of the adapters below using the drop-downs if you choose.
- The 2.2L Gas Bottle Adapter allows the use of disposable gas bottles that have an M10 thread on them. You can get CO2, Nitrogen or Argon here. These are high capacity (the nitrogen holds the same gas as 140 x bulbs for instance!)
- The Type 30 Adapter allows you to use large refillable CO2 bottles, these are the standard thread used in Australia for homebrew or pub-size CO2 bottles (often in 2.6kg, 6kg, or 8kg gas bottle sizes)
The remote gas line goes between your keg and regulator allowing you to have them separate. Most of our kegs don't fit a SodaStream gas bottle easily directly on them so it's necessary to use the line to separate it from the keg. Because of the one-way valve included in the iKegger 2.0 regulator box you can lie the keg down and liquid can't go up the gas line to damage the regulator.
Note For 1st Time Use:
- The Sodastream adapter comes with an Allan keg, the M10 adapter comes with a small screw driver. These are to adjust the length of the pin that activates the valve on the gas bottles. The correct length needs to be set the first time you use it.
- Put the tool into the regulator (thin male thread) end of the adapter and unscrew the pin (anticlockwise) so it doesn't activate valve when put on the gas bottle.
- Screw the adapter onto the gas bottle (SodaStream or 2.2L).
- Use the screwdriver/Allan key to screw in the pin till it makes contact with the gas bottle valve.
- Remove the adapter from the bottle, then screw the pin in another 1/4 turn.
- Now put the adapter into the regulator, then attach to the gas bottle.
- It should activate the valve now.
- You only need to do this the 1st time you use it.
