Hey, looking for some advice on a co2 regulator and manifold setup. My current regulator hit the dust. I'm also in the process of building a keezer, so I figured now would be a good time to get the right pieces for that project.
I'm going for a 4 keg setup. Thinking it would be nice to control the pressure on each individually, although I'm not sure how often I'd need to do that. I'd also like a standalone line for force carbonating.
My money-saving side says to go for a co2 regulator with two valves and get a 4 body manifold which would serve all kegs at same temperature. But my feature-wanting side says to ditch the manifold and go for a 4 body secondary regulator to control each keg's pressure.
Here are some of the items I have my eye on:
CO2 Regulator:
CO2 Beer Regulator, Double Gauge, WYE'd with Two Check Valves, 5/16 Barbed, Chudnow Economy Brand - $54.95 (http://stores.kegconnection.com/Detail.bok?no=90)
Two Product CO2 Regulator - Polycarbonate Bonnet - $75.50 (http://www.kegworks.com/two-product-co2-regulator-polycarbonate-bonnet-427-p173963)
Secondary Regulator:
4 Body, Chudnow Secondary Regulator, High Pressure - $148.95 (http://stores.kegconnection.com/Detail.bok?no=478)
4-Way Secondary Air Regulator - $164.50 (http://www.kegworks.com/4-way-secondary-air-regulator-427-p16653)
Manifold:
4-Way CO2 Distribution Bar with Safety - $58.75 (http://www.kegworks.com/4-way-co2-distribution-bar-with-safety-427-p16449?source=nextopia)
Hoping to get some advice as to which setup people usually prefer and if anyone has experience with the above items?
Thanks
