Just firm. Doesn't need to be hammered in super tight or anything. Obviously you don't want it so tight that you can't get it out again. The guy from the Keg Factory told me he only puts his in hand tight. I tap mine in lightly with a hammer. To remove just tap lightly side to side until it comes loose.
