Connecting two kegs

[Suthrncomfrt1884]

Hey everyone...been awhile since I've been on here.

Question. My brothers wedding is in a few weeks and I'm brewing all of the beer for it. We'll have one keg-orator running two different beers and another with a larger batch of one beer. I have the option of using a sanke 1/2 barrel for the larger batch if I need to, but because of their ease of use, I would prefer to use two cornys.

I would rather not have to worry about changing kegs during the party, so I had a thought. Anyone see any issues with booking up kegs in line with each other?

CO2 would go into the first keg. I would then have a jumper from the liquid out to the gas in port on the second keg. The liquid out post on the second keg would be connected to the tap.

The only issue I thought I might run into would be foaming in the second keg due to pressure changes in the jumper. Any thoughts?

Nope, it'll work fine. Just make sure that you push beer into the keg closest to the tap first (let's call this "keg 1"), so there is no headspace remaining. You can do this by daisy chaining like you said, but without hooking keg 1 to the tap. Pull the pressure relief on keg 1 while having keg 2 hooked up to the gas (at a low pressure). Once you start to get foam/beer coming out of the pressure relief, you're good to go.

See here for more details. I posted a link to a site with photos:
