Couldn't find any threads on it, maybe because it's such an obvious part of kegging...
But should there always be beer in the tap lines? I'm assuming that the pressure in the keg is going to push the beer into the tap line until it's full, I just wanted to make sure that this was standard for everyone's system (as it appears to be on mine).
If this is in fact the way that everyone's system works, do you include the beer that had been sitting in the lines in your next pour? I'd be inclined not to waste that beer, but I'm curious whether the beer picks up any weird flavors while sitting in the line, assuming that your lines are clean.
Thanks for the help!
