Scott,
We use a normal CO2 bottle. It works fine for pushing the beer and has always worked fine (before) on the solution in the bottles. The type of pressure is not the problem. The connection between the keg tap and the bottle is still where the problem lies.
Here's a little more detail:
The pressure from the CO2 bottle is set to 10-15 PSI. Each line has its own regulator (adjustable) and is also set at about 10-13 PSI. With the valve on the individual line regulator shut off, the gauge reads 13PSI. When the tap is locked into the bottle cap and the valve is turned to ON, the PSI drops to 0 and air is hissing around the tap.
Hope that helps.
ernestbud,
Believe me, I know!
This is the only longline I have left to work with and it is a pain! It was bad enough to work a three line system, what with having to fill the cleaning solution bottle several times for each line and then flushing with several bottles of clean water on every line. (That system was finally replaced by an under-the-counter system (again!)).
But this is a 10-line system!
Rob
