No probs, IsMise if it's a good home no probs. Will pm you my contacts.
Hi newToBrew, not yet, I'll have em this sat, you're on top of the list.
Ciderhead, I'll swap that single one for double for you, if you want, hope you didn't run 100kg gas through it in the space of last two weeks?

Regs go a lot higher than 6 psi!!

Most regs read bar ( 1 bar = 14 psi ) AND psi.

Are you sure you aren't reading the Bar numbers and not the PSI numbers?

The regs are in Bar, it depends what you are trying to carb, if its a lager etc 3 bar and roll around on the floor for half an hour and allow co2 to be absorbed, and you will hear your tank fizz as more c02 goes into your beer.
I never force carb as above just leave it on 7-10 days at your preferred bar/psi rate in the cold(easier to absorb c02 at colder temps)
Dont forget after initial filling to flush out the oxygen in the headspace.
