Hey All,

I got a 1/6 of Magic Hat #9 and a 1/6 of Blue Moon for my Superbowl Party. These are my first commercial kegs so I am trying to figure out what pressure to set them at to serve. Can anyone give me some guidance as to what pressure to use for them? (I have a regulator for each)

Really depends on your beer line lengths. Mine are at 10' and I leave the reg the same weather I'm pushing commercial or homebrew, 10-11 psi.
 
For commercial kegs that'll likely get spent that day, I'd just put enough pressure to dispense them. Turn reg down, open tap, open reg until you get a good pour.
 
Ok thx. I am running around 10' of the 3/16' BevSeal Ultra. What about if it won't get spent the same day?
