From HBF: Make sure the components you use are compatible and rated for your intended application.  Contact manufacturer with questions about suitability or a specific application.  Always read and follow manufacturer directions.

 

Note from HBF: For whatever reason this offering seems to periodically change. The one I’m intending to link to is a 2 1/2 dial with 1/4″ NPT that reads 0 to 60 PSI. It’s possible a different variation will show up.

A possible homebrew application for this is to use it as part of a Spunding Valve Build.   A Spunding Valve allows you to ferment under pressure, naturally and precisely carbonate in the keg, fix over-carbonated beers and lots more. See: Build a Spunding Valve
