I'm looking for some advise..
Im ready to leap, but wanted to look before. I just got 3 ball lock kegs, which I checked well. They are used, but were pumped up with CO2 and when I released pressure they seemed to have quite a bit of gas in them. They are clean and appear to have been stored properly. Secondly, I plan on converting a refrigerator to a 3 or 4 tap through the door system. Does life get any better than this? In any event I have a few basic questions and would like to hear some ideas or suggestions before I let excitement take over and I screw something up..
1. Should I rebuild all the kegs, new o-rings, keg posts etc.?
2. I plan on using the same pressure in each keg, do I need a dual regulator? I dont want to skimp, as I plan on at least three kegs.
3. CO2, Buy a bottle or rent from local distributors? I really have no clue here.
4. I think the rest is a matter of disconnects, taps and tubing.
I have looked through, I think, the entire forum for ideas, but Id still be willing to hear any ideas and/or tips so I can tap my first beer.
Thanks
