Over the last 10 years I’ve acquired a lot of kegging equipment. I have a kegerator, portable kegerator, direct dispense equipment. Honestly I couldn’t tell you what size lines I have on everything. Sometimes it was just use what I had.
It’s time to clean things up. It’s been a very long time since lines were cleaned or changed. I need a fresh start. My first question is what is the best beer line size to use? From what I’ve read over 10ft use 1/4 and under that 3/16. I do understand how to balance a system, most of my runs will be under 10 but I do keg root beer on occasion which requires a longer run. I’d like to use just one size of line so I can buy in bulk. Does gas line size matter or can I just use what I use for the beer?
In regards to clamps I currently use worm clamps but I really like the clean look of the Oetiker clamps. With that said my friend has a pex clamp tool I can use. Would that be a good choice? The advantage is I wouldn’t have to purchase the Oetiker tool.
