I think I am finally going to make the plunge and buy my kegging equipment this week. I still dont have my chest freezer, but I can get that later. I just want to bounce this off of the more experienced keggers here at HBT to make sure that I am getting everything I need. Here is what I have picked out so far:
2- 5 gallon corny kegs
2- 1/4" gas disconnects
2- 1/4" liquid disconnects
hose clamps
picnic tap
BLC
keg lube
dual gauge regulator
3-way check valve
and 8' of 1/4" tube
Obviously, I know that I still am going to need a CO2 tank, but I am still shopping around for the best price. Is a 5lb tank big enough? Will that be enough to carb and dispense a few kegs worth? Also, I got the 8' of tubing to go from the regulator to the check valve, but does it matter how much tubing runs from the valve to the kegs? Can I just get enough to make it reach, or should I get longer?
If there is anything else I need, or anything else you fine folks would recommend I would appreciate it. Also if anyone has any idea where to get a CO2 tank for a good price, I would appreciate that too. Although, I will probably just go with Ebay or something.
Thanks.
