I believe my regulator has a 5/16" barb fitting. I've read that 1/4' is good for home brew and 5/16' is good for commercial. Is this true or does it not matter?

My air in ball lock connector has a 1/4" fitting, so I would need to do some kind of connection from 5/16" to 1/4" or get a new 5/16" FFL fitting.

So basically I guess my question is, should I get all 1/4" parts and line or 5/16" parts and line?
 
I have a 5/16 connector on my tank and 1/4" hose... just ran the hose under really hot water to get it to expand first. Made for a tight seal :)
