$72 WTF???

I cannot find a brass one.  This valve has it but I cannot find one for sale.  I own this one too, for 20 bucks it is worth buying it instead of making IMO.

is there a way to go direct from that to a gas QD?

 

 It has a 1/4" female flare fitting on one end, which attaches to any threaded ball or pin lock gas fitting.

 

 

does this mean that I can screw it onto a gas QD?  I'm not sure I have one that has threads on it.

 

is this what I need?

Agh yes, that was an epic thread.

 

I threw the spunding valve on my helles before I left for work this morning so I will see how it is going latter on.

I wonder what I'll do about dry hopping if I did this.  naturally carb and then dry hop (probably negating all of my O2 scrubbing efforts) or maybe dry hop while naturally carbing (probably producing some geraniol for my troubles ).

 

eta:  so I guess what I'm saying is, this will be for the beers I don't dry hop (typically about half of what I brew).

 I would try carbonating and dry hopping all in one then push it over to a serving keg.

I know that might be a good idea but I also know I'm pretty lazy

I'm generally consistent.

 

how would you avoid the trub when you jump kegs?  shortened dip tube?
