Greetings all, I've had 4-5 kegs in a chest freezer w/ Johnson controls for over a year now, and it's finally time to add a collar and build a keezer. I'm sick of picnic taps!
My question is, while shopping for faucets/shanks...I'm pretty much set on Perlick 525SS, those are the best correct?
For shanks, I see a ton of different sizes. How do I know which size to order? Are the size differences primarily due to length? Will the faucet I'm interested in screw onto any size shank? I don't want to order the wrong one.
I'm assuming it has something to do with the size of the hole I want to drill into the collar and how long I need it to be, but I wanted to make sure.
Then I'll need a beer line connection kit from kegconnection like this:

I have everything inside...co2 tank, manifold, 8 kegs, liquid lines etc, all I need is to build the collar (using billybrew.com's idea), and the faucet/liquid side hardware for dispensing.
Am I missing anything?
Thanks!
