I have purchased an antique beer tower and the plumbing inside is completely foreign to me. It has stainless pipes that the hoses are supposed to hook up to that run to a stainless box. It needs a very good cleaning, but after that should i leave the system in place or try to rip out all the internal plumbing and go with something more simple? I am stuck as to what i can do to get it operating. If anyone has any suggestions i would be greatly appreciative.


here are the stainless pipes.

The two pipes that don't match the others appear to be for glycol collant. They won't be of use to you.
Personally with that amount of corrosion on the beer lines, I would remove the plumbing, and just get 3 short tower shanks and use standard tubing.

Or if you get too overwelmed, you can always donate it to me. :cross:
