How do I post photos ???

Post by Russ » Wed Feb 21, 2007 6:09 pm

Hi Guys

Sorry if this is a dumb question but I can't figure it out. I know I've seen this asked before but I can't find the post on how to do it dispite using search......

I understand from the FAQ I have to download picture to a web based album but the link didn't give me any clue what to do.

I wanted to share a piccy of my King Keg converted for use similar to a Cornie.........

Cheers

Russ

Russ, once you have the image stored on the web, (you need to know the web address) you point to it using the [img] tags.

You write this into your post (without the asterisks):

[img*]http://webaddres of your image.com/imagename.jpg[/img*]

You image will then appear in your post.

If you're not fussed about keeping track of them, then http://allyoucanupload.webshots.com is quick and simple.

I use http://www.imageshack.us and find them to be reliable. If you google for 'free image hosting', there are quite a few places.

OK Was going to do this another day but....

I'm using a Cornie Keg at the mo and i'm well impressed. Using the Tap that came with it from Norm and makes dispensing a joy. I've converted the King Keg so I can use it in a similar way to a Cornie. I can connect up to the Cornie tap for dispensing (via Blue JG tap) and add Gas via a CO2 bottle and one way valve (white and red bit) so no need to prime the keg with sugar.

I used a universal gas fitting (5/16 tubing) from H&G onto the S30 valve, a JG 5/16 to 3/8 fitting to get to the correct size for the one way valve, I removed the inlet rubber but retained the pressure relief rubber for saftey on the S30. The KK tap was replaced by a John guest bulkhead fitting.

So far it seems to work great, the pressure relief valve lifts at around 1 bar but I'm sure that this will surfice for carbonation (for bitter) and I use less pressure for dispensing.

It also has the advantage of holding a full 5 gallons unlike a Cornie

Hope this is of interest

That's brilliant Russ, may try this with an old boots barrel.
Is the bulkhead fitting 3/8"?
Did you know that the non-return valve is for liquids & not gas?

Hi Frothy

Yes 3/8'' fitting on the bulkhead fitting from the Harmony Hut, also where I got the none return valve from. Yes I did know the none return valve was suposed to be for liquids only but mine works and holds back the gas ?! I was planning on using a tap in its place but no need as this works for me.

That's news to me also i use the same none return valves for gas. Seems to be working okay for me too Russ

You sure the bulkhead fitting isn't a 1/2" fitting with a 3/8" adapter?
