My burners are rated at 177,000 BTU's and I have 20# tanks.
The fella's rig I am cloning, used 1/2 tubing and he said he regulates the propane at 30#'s.
The guy @ HD suggested 3/4 if I were gonna have two on at once, ie HLT and MT. So I went with what he said. (he is also a plumber-though not a homebrewer)
Is there a preference over using 1/2 or 3/4 copper tubing for plumbing my propane lines to the burners?
Will I have and PSI issues using the larger lines? I was thinking I should purchase an extra psi gauge and add that in after the tank too...is that recomended?
