I have been told to get a better pour to go with the 3/16" tubing insted of the 1/4" tubing. Also, I was told that it is good to have at least 5' extra tubing to coil up on top of the keg to kelp give a better pour. What are your opinions on this advice i have been given as well as some recommendations on types of tubing to order and where to buy? Thanks in advance for your help!!!
 
I brew mostly english beers and very few of them reach even 2 volumes so the 5 feet my system came with is actually too much line for me. I have to drop my glass down a good 6-8 inches and let the beer hit the center of the glass to dislodge enough co2 to get any kind of head on my beer.
 
not every 3/16" ID beer line has the same resistance per ft. Your mileage may vary. I would start with 8' and work your way down. 1/4" is for long draw setups.
