Ne set up Question
What up I am new to the forum and have been reading as much as possible to minimize any trouble that might comes my way . I have just bought the Haier and already did the modification. I'm not sure what the liquid temp is. I have put a glass of water and let site over night and it freezes which means water must be 32d to freeze. My question is I have just put a Coors light Keg and have not taped it yet I put it in last night and wanted to let it sit for 24hrs to make sure all is good with the foam. What is the best PSI to run at I hear 13 to 16 wondering If any body can help. I am at sea level and the length on my lines are what ever comes with the Haier. Thanks

At 32 degrees or lower your system is too cold. You need to get your liquid temp set to at least 34 degrees and then tap your keg. Your next action should be to raise the temp on your system a hair and then go to the nearest cooking store and get you an instant read digital thermomiter...

38' is an ideal temp. stand if not start off at about 12'and if not satisfied gradually increase I have heard 16' is good for cooors but it is easier to increase co2 psi then decrease good luck if beer to cold it will not carbonate well.

If your location is in the greater Northeast and your beer temp. is 36 F, set PSIG to 13. Otherwise, 15
