I've currently got a kegging setup with picnic taps. 2 Keg Basic Keg Kit, Premium Kit This one with a dual body regulator. I'm about ready to move to faucets, but I'm a little confused on a couple of things.
1. I'm going to get a 4 way distributor Austin Homebrew Supply to split the air. I plan on running a single line into the fridge and mounting the distributor to the back wall. What's the best way to mount something inside the fridge? Screws don't seem like they would hold well, as it's just the plastic lining in the fridge holding it there. But I don't want to glue it down either, in case I ever want to move it.
2. I'll need a QD with liquid line running from the keg. That line runs into the back of the shank. The shank mounts through the fridge door. The faucet hooks to the shank. Seems simple enough. But what about all the wing nuts, tail pieces, fitting kits, beer nuts, and beer washers I keep seeing? I don't know where they go or which are needed. Most of the tutorials I find are showing how to hook up a tower, which seems a little different.
3. I want my CO2 tank outside. But that means if I want to take the tank somewhere (say to have it filled) I'll have to disconnect the gas line (which runs inside the fridge) from the regulator. Then hook it back up later. It seems like there is the potential for opening up a leak here. The dual body regulator I have came pre-assembled and attached to the tank. Is it pretty easy and straightforward to take one of the lines off and put back on? This won't mess up the fitting/seal in anyway? Is there something similar to a QD that I could use to make this a quicker process?
