I'm a Newbie
Hello everyone,
I recently purchased a Danby kegerator and have had some issues with flow but if I close the C02 valve for a bit it begins to pour really well. Nonetheless, the beer tastes really good and it is nice and cold. Do any of you see a big difference when I start to switch from Mich. Ultra to Yuengling Lager Light? I keep my psi at 10 and the temp goes up and down since it is digital (but i have it set at 37) and the beer temped at 36-37 when it was poured. Any tid bits would be great.  Thanks!

Wow, that sounds like a good amount of troubleshooting. I can tinker with mine enough that I can get it to pour nicely and the carbonation and chill factor are still fine. I also apologize for posting this in the commercial area and not in the at home forum, sorry i'm new! 10-12 psi is alright though correct? And have you had any flow issues with your danby?

I run my co2 @ 12 psi and have no flow issues. Just the warm tower but I'm going to fix that.

How are you determining the beer temperature?

Grabbed a clean non-frosted glass and poured myself a beer and temped it. Is there a more traditional way?

Yes. Use a calibrated thermometer and take the temperature of the second pour in the same glass.

ok, another ?. When I shut off the off/on switch for the C02 going into the keg the pressure reading inside the keg goes from roughly 14 to 6-8 psi. Should that maintain at 14 when shut off, the high gauge that reads the contents of the C02 tank does not move at all? THanks for any help.
