Thanks guys for the help. I will contact the venue and see if they can send me a picture since its a bit of a drive. Seems like those sankey couplers are my best bet.

yeah i hear ya, I also want someone else to deal with it at the end of my wedding, so it needs to be super simple is all

The problem is that the Sanke is the wedding venues property so I can't screw with it very much.

I would prefer to stick with my ball lock kegs that I already own and get an adapter if it exists rather than shell out the cash for sixtels. I can always just ice bucket and picnic tap if need be.

So I am planning on making a few cornie kegs of homebrew to serve at my wedding and the venue has a kegerator that is setup for commercial kegs. I am assuming they will not allow me to cut their lines and hook up regular ball lock fittings, does anyone know if there is some sort of adapter that...

well it worked! beer has a good carb to it and not too much foam after the first pour. thanks for all the help guys!

thanks!

I just got this set up. I have my brew closet through the wall with a standard mini fridge and one keg that I am currently troubleshooting. I'm happy with it though..

all i have is the valve to burp the keg..

yeah i think the picnic was around 5-6 feet, but when i saw the foam building up in the line after the first pour that it was overcarbed. so do i just leave in the fridge and keep releasing the pressure for a few days to try and lower the carb ratio?

and regardless of the line temp, when i hooked up a picnic tap it was just filled that line full of foam too.

shouldn't the first pour be foamy if the line was warm, the rest would be the temp out of the keg so would be a good pour? could it have gotten too carbonated at a week out with 20psi? that's when i hooked up the tap and had too much foam. thanks for the help

So I am having foaming issues with my first keg beer. I have a modified mini fridge in a closet with a home made riser up about 12 inches from the top then it goes about 2 feet through a wall to the faucet. The hose is in a pvc pipe open to the fridge and well insulated with pipe insulation...
