Hey guys and gals , does anyone know if I can put my whole c02 bottle along with the regulator attached to it, in the fridge so I can carb up cold kegs before I start using them, I'm just wondering if it will damage my regulator??

I found this cheers
And on a final note, putting the bottle of gas in the fridge will cause the reading on the gauge to drop to 500 psi. This is not a loss of gas, it is just a lowering of temperature - it will come back up when you warm up the bottle. Temperature and pressure are connected (as Boyles and/or Charles figured out in the 19th Century) so do not worry it does not affect your keg set-up to have your C02 bottle in the refrigerator.

Enjoy your keg setup! It is the most enjoyable thing you can add to your homebrew setup!

Yep in the fridge is fine, but as Finnroo said the pressure gauge will read lower on the gauge that shows you the actual pressure in the tank, the gauge that supplies pressure to your keg, or serving pressure will read normally. Cheers!

Brewing a familiar Dark Mild later today. (hint: Was the bastard tired? Or was he run over by a tire (tyre). No one really knows). One thing for sure. It will be a treat when done. Cheers!
