How much for the Guinness coupler? That's the u-shape, right?

[CARA]

It's not a U shape but is also known as a "U-Type" coupler as used by Guinness and harp etc. The U or horseshoe shape is popular with a lot of German breweries (M-type)

[John Edward]

Ah, that's what I need, the Guinness one. Thanks

[Oh Crap]

IS €20 too much for one? Collect or plus postage?
I have 2 u-type here . One is Guinness the other is bulmers (just the release handle)

Is this what you need? Attach gasline from coupler and shut the valve. Prevent venting keg

That is a gas distributor. The gas main line is "top and bottom connectors" in the pic. The Keg is the left hand outlet. When the centre valve is in the postion shown gas flows to the keg.

Nowt to do with beer/keg couplers!!

You are correct it is a gas distributor.  But Yes it does have to do with the coupler. ...In the pic the gas is in the left and is distributed to the other lines that run to 2 kegs couplers giving gas to both kegs.
(Pic is sideways)

I was asked in s message about shutting of gas to the coupler and posted the pic to show how it is done.  Gas in, pull down knob, no gas flow to keg.

Basically what I'm trying to do is connect a beer engine to a keg. I'm cask conditioning the beer so it will have a bit of pressure for the first few pulls, but once it's at atmospheric pressure I'll pull CO2 from a mylar balloon full of the gas. If I attach the coupler without connecting the gas in line, will it vent any of the pressure or is it one-way?

Also, will the vaccuum inside the keg be enough to draw CO2 from the balloon until the pressure's normalised?
