maintain 2.5 volumes of C02 in beer served at F. That same retailer would need 13.3 psi gauge
pressure at 4,000 feet elevation to maintain 5 volumes of C0
2.
Calculate ideal gauge pressure of
straight C02
Carbonation level not known.
Set the regulator pressure to 5 psi.
Tap a fresh keg. Make sure the keg has been in
the cooler long enough to be at the cooler tem
-
perature.
Pour a small amount of beer through the faucet.
Observe the beer in the draught line directly
above the keg coupler (with a ashlight if nec
-
essary), inspecting for bubbles rising up from the
beer in the keg.
If bubbles are present, raise the regulator
pressure 1 psi.
Repeat steps 3 - 5 until no bubbles are present.
Check the keg temperature 24 hours after setting
the initial gauge pressure to assure temperature
stability, and to reset the gauge pressure as need

ed due to a change in keg temperature.
This is the lowest pressure at which the gas in
the beer is not escaping. This is your ideal gauge
pressure.
