It's a three tank system. Softener, iron clear, and an air oxidizer. Maybe a small RO system would do the trick?

Here is my wardlabs report. I am on a well in Iowa and do have a water quality system that I don't know much about. pH 7.4 Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) Est, ppm 420 Electrical Conductivity, mmho/cm 0.70 Cations / Anions, me/L 7.8...

The only thing those calculators don't allow me to do is take into account different resistance lines like going from stainless to vinyl.

I'm currently building out my basement that will have a 4 faucet tower on the bar counter with a chest freezer from behind the wall feeding it. Lines will be glycol chilled. I'm looking at a tower that has stainless steel lines in it, guessing about 5 feet, and I like the concept of ss lines...

So far I'm failing with the screw on the side of the thermostat. I'm continuing to fiddle with it as it seems like if you set the screw all the way in, the compressor doesn't turn on as often, yet I still have freezing temperatures inside. I might just give in and use my johnson control I...

This is the FRF1050. I didn't do the 'break in' as I didn't see how that would make a difference for temperature. I went right to the thermostat and turned it all the way in and checked several times to still see a below freezing water bottle in there. I have since backed the screw out quite a...

I just bought an Igloo FRF1050 and turned the screw all the way in, but that still had the lowest setting on the dial below freezing. I'm going the other direction to see what that does. However, from where the screw started to all the way in didn't really seem to affect the temperature inside...

That's strange since we have the same unit. I have the dial turned all the way counter clockwise which is in the number 1 position, but every time I check the temperature its around 30 if not colder.

I just setup a 12" collar with MDF board. I noticed the temperature on the 1 setting is still in the mid 20s. I thought it would be in the mid 30s or high 30s according to someone else on here. I pulled the plug and letting it warm and going to try again. Was hoping to not use a temp controller.

I need to measure, but possibly 8" collar. I need to remeasure my kegs and see how much clearance that would give. If I could store an extra keg on the collar that would be a bonus. I want to build a collar either way so I can run my trunk line through that without drilling through the lid of...

I somehow got free delivery on my fridge from bestbuy.com . I couldn't figure out why, but wasn't going to argue! It arrived yesterday and is a great layout and depth for fitting kegs on the floor. I may be able to fit 6 1/6 barrels on the floor and if I built a collar high enough two more on...

Thanks for the info. I bit the bullet and purchased it. Somehow it gave me free delivery. I'm confident it will be able to hold 5 kegs, which was the minimum I needed.

Any luck?

TNT - would you be able to tell me how many 1/6 Barrels can fit? They are 9.25" diameter. This would help me out a ton as I'm looking for a freezer this size and haven't found a price like this in awhile.

This is exactly what I was looking for commercial 1/6 Kegs, I think. I'm trying to figure out how many 1/6 Keg's I can fit in there. I just need to be able to fit 5 and anymore would be a bonus. It looks like this possibly could do that.

Problem resolved. I finally did find that the specs on the trunk line say the resistance is .1 lb per foot. So your point to basically act as if the trunk isn't there was correct. Pours are a little slower than I like, but it's pouring a perfect head on all beers now.

Ha.. so I get home and my tank is empty again... Time to redo the entire air system!

Correct. I'll do some experimentation tonight and report back. I appreciate the insight. The interesting thing about the calculation you had me run for when the CO2 tank was about empty is that it didn't seem like it took 16 seconds to fill. It seemed like a comfortable 10 seconds.

That does make sense and I can work with that. Is there any benefit to me using 5/16 line at the beginning so there is no choke at the beginning and there would still be a 3/16 choke at the end?

There currently is a small diameter choke at the faucet by going back down to 3/16. That's the best I can do there. The foaming appears to be consistent whether 3 or 4 pints are poured. I can definitely take the temperature back down. One interesting fact: When I changed CO2 tanks I forgot to...
