CO2 Manifold

[Mad Scientist]

Anyone have a good set of instructions for making a CO2 manifold?

I made a 3 way out of 1/2 brass tees and close nipples...not difficult to do.

NO

Most of my CO2 manifolds are 3/4" x 3/4" x 6" long, black Delrin.
All holes are 1/8" NPT and quick disconnects.
Depending on the CO2 manifold function I incorporated a pressure relief valve.

Once I compared the prices to piece one together out of brass fittings to the ones from Northern Brewer with the valves with the integral hose barb and check valve, I bought the ones from Northern Brewer. If you want to use plastic fittings, it might beat the NB price, but I didn't want more fragile PVC parts in a kgrtr that I'm lifting kegs and CO2 tanks into and out of.
