    Stc-1000+

    Success! I was a bit nervous holding the pins in case I broke contact midway through writing the firmware, but no issues. Thanks for a great product and making it so easy to implement!

    Stc-1000+

    Thanks wilconrad and barrooze! I'll give it a shot tonight and report back. Hopefully my thrown together cable, with parts out of an original xbox I had lying around, will work!

    Stc-1000+

    Very excited to start using stc1000+ and appreciate all the hard work that has gone into this. Apologize if this has been asked and answered, but I couldn't find it so here goes...I have a hardware question. I saw earlier posts which pointed out the proper boards have the first 2 blocks closer...

    Line length, pressure...want to get this right

    I like it quite a bit actually. I picked it up from ebay, pulled from a bar, so was a good amount cheaper than new which I believe is around $800-900. The shanks are metal. The black pieces you are seeing are plastic sleeves which cover the shank. They don't seem to be anything more than...

    4 taps, glycol chilled from basement to butlers pantry

    Good catch. I had that pic there to show the line connections, but once I was sure there were no leaks, I gave it the same saran wrap, tin foil and pipe insulation treatment.

    JuanMoore, awesome info and that spreadsheet is a great reference. I like that you can calculate length from pressure and especially vice versa for those of us that are finding out how to properly do this after completing their project :p. I plugged in values and was prompted with "Warning...

    Ok, thanks, I was worried that was the case. I'll put direct links to each post in the initial post.

    4 taps, glycol chilled from basement to butlers pantry

    Tower time :) Have beer, need a way to serve it. Enter the beer tower. The tower has 2 main components, the base and the faucets; more on the faucets later. When picking a tower, you have 2 main choices which I will call active and passive cooling. Active cooling, which I use, has copper...

    4 taps, glycol chilled from basement to butlers pantry

    Hey guys, before I put up the next big section, is there any way to specify where it goes in the thread? I'd like the posts to be sequential but not sure if there's a way to do that. ScotBrew, my basement is crying out for a lot of things :-) if anything, I'd put a brewing area there. The...

    Beer line length formula and beer line cooling Before getting to cooling, I should mention how you should come up with the length of your beer line. There are many sites with this info, but the formula to use is line_length = (keg_pressure – 1 – (Lift/2)) / Resistance. While the...

    Line length, pressure...want to get this right

    Bobby, Cool, that was my thought as well, will definitely go with 1/4". Thanks. Pelipen, I typically kept my pressure around 12psi when I had my co2 and keg in the fridge. It sounds as if I will have to crank that up to get the proper pressure when running upstairs. Perhaps a silly question...

    Line length, pressure...want to get this right

    Hi all. Long time listener, first time caller :) I've done quite a bit of searching, but don't feel like I have a complete handle on what I'd like to do. Here's my scenario. Upright fridge/freezer in the basement, tower in the kitchen. From the middle of the keg to faucet is 5' across and...
