The gauges in the Duotight inline regulator don't do anything but read the output pressure, correct? In order for it to matter what the input pressure is, in terms of whether or not it damages that gauge, you'd have to have them connected in some way to the system before the regulator valve...

The 8mm OD Duotight uses the 1/4".

I have a pack of those, either 50 or 100, I forget which. Not to spoil the ending, but I'm pretty confident I can 3D print those. Not at any kind of cost savings, but if I can work out a viable way to incorporate them into the fake metal pipe design... well that'll hold everything on quite...

Good points - I'm losing pressure without the kegs attached so it's not that. All kegs disconnected, all valves open or closed on the manifold, I lose pressure.

Hrm... something like this could work: https://www.mcmaster.com/push-to-connect-tube-fittings/nickel-plated-brass-push-to-connect-tube-fittings-for-air/for-tube-od~8mm/shape~tee/ The problem is that unless someone knows for sure, I don't think I'd want to buy 5x everything just to find out...

Nice, that's really slick. I think we have the same (or at least very similar) kegerator. I want to push mine closer to the wall and (ideally) just leave it there so putting the tank on the mount on the back isn't ideal for me. I'm toying with the idea of running the line through the side of the...

Okay, starting from this basic idea that is (obviously) not mine or original: I'm thinking of putting something like this on the wall behind my kegerator, but I'd like it to be less plastic. I say "steampunk" not because I want it to look steampunk, but more metal, more "cool", more...

Replaced all the clamps, and replaced the foamiest beer's tap with a variable flow tap. Regardless of flow rate, I'm still getting mostly foam. So I'm guessing line length isn't the problem. Still have a CO2 leak somewhere past the regulator. It's faster with the manifold valves open, but it's...

Thanks, that tells me I'm off by maybe 2 feet. The suggestion here is that my lines need an extra 5 feet at least. The probable culprit is the "e" value in that equation which I don't have for Evabarrier - vinyl tubing is probably different, and the value that's pre-populated. That's a good...

I'd like to avoid a lot of trial and error, so if there's some way to plug in PSI and line ID and get the feet needed that would be good to have. I'm probably not going to serve the exact same beer every time from now on. I've ordered an adjustable flow tap to see how well that works as a...

That's exactly what I have. Considering that the system seems to leak from everywhere, that makes sense as a culprit. I was suspecting that this might be a solution. My styles tend to go towards high-pressure requirements, so it may be worth the investment. The keezer I bought has a 4 tap...

Okay, so I've done some research but it can be tough sometimes phrasing a question exactly right so that a Google search brings you to the answer to that question, rather than some other question. I have a wheat beer in the keg that says ~3.10 volumes so I put 20psi on it at 40F. The beer is...

Anyone have one of these: Amazon.com: Kegco Keg Dispenser : Appliances

A bit of a long one, the short version is I want to build a 3-4 keg system and though I like a fair amount of DIY, I want to spend as little time faffing about with it as possible. I want a BOM or possibly a turn-key system. Yes, I can (and have) read a ton of stuff and answer my own questions...

Close, but no cigar. When I first saw this I really wanted to like it. After looking at it more closely (and seeing the price tag) I'm still planning to do kegging. If you want more than two you have to purchase more than one kit? Oh, but he has plans to sell extra boxes separately "some day"...
