Remodelling my basement (sadly not into a brew pub like some of you lucky bastards) has put the brewing on hold for the past couple of months. Now that it's nearing completion i plan to get the pipline going again and want to avoid bottling at all costs (well, at least a minimal costs)...
I already have a fridge-conversion commercial kegerator with a single regulator and a 5lb tank. http://www.beveragefactory.com/draftbeer/kits/skk.shtml
Basically, i'm looking for the least expensive option to transform what i have into a setup with two faucets: one commercial, and one homebrew for the time being. This is a full sized fridge, so they'll fit fine...
Is my best choice is to get a second faucet/couplers/keg/lines/etc. If i do this, how would i use the regulator? Get a manifold to turn the one feed into two? I dont think i would trust plastic, so the cheapest i'm seeing is $30-something just for that splitter?
So $30 + _____ for the kit? If anyone just went shopping for these things, I would appreciate any links you can send! :rockin:
Also, what is the difference between the ball lock couplers 1/4 MFL vs. 1/4 Barb? Which one is better?
