Ideally yes, I would have wanted to go though the outlet and have a vent for the inlet. However I'm using a Fastferment conical fermenter and the line was too wide for the connections I have. This was my first time using either the fastferment or a keg, so a lot of learning happened today...

The book I plan to use (plan to pick it up once I get some time to myself) is How to Brew by John Palmer. A friend of mine says its the beginner's brew bible. I think its around $15 at Barnes and Noble. If someone else has any suggestions I'm more than open to them.
