I just got a hop rocket and want to run it inline dispenser style with my kegs. I am first off challenged when it comes to connecting fittings and also can't find one place with everything I need. I need to go from 1/2" inch NPT to the beer lines that are 3/16" ID I believe, standard line size. There an in/out on the rocket. Something quick disconnect as possible. and when done using it like to connect the lines back up. Any ideas on what I need and where to go are appreciated.

thanks in advance so much.

Flared (MFL) Blichmann quick connect fittings with FFL swivel nuts on your beer lines would be the most obvious solution.

(One of many possible online vendors, just happened to be the first google search result)
 
Missed the part of wanting a one stop shop, but it looks like homebrewing.org would have you covered:
Two of either these:

-or these-

(depending on your draft line size)

Then two of the quick connects I mentioned above:

And then one of these to join that beer line back together when not using the hop rocket:

And i'd throw in a bunch of flare washers since those will be metal-on-metal connections:

So awesome, thanks. Will the 1/4 inch barb fit the beer line. 3/16 inside diameter?
 
thank you again, I didn't realize the 1/4 works for it and appreciate you taking time to find each piece that I needed.
