Keezer Line Sizes Question:

[Michael S. Henry]

Here's my scenario: I just built my keezer based on the Northern Brewer video on Youtube. Clearly, the set up is for homebrew kegs (which is what I wanted). The issue is that I'd like to have some guest taps running. My gas lines are 1/4" and my liquid lines are 3/16." When looking at a coupler (and my gas distributor) I can't figure out the best way to adapt to the 5/16" gas lines and 1/4" liquid lines necessary for the D Coupler! To boot, I probably need at 12' line at 1/4 to have the proper settings at the tap. Advice???? Thanks!

A D coupler should take 3/16 line as a standard.

As for gas, you should be able to find a 5/16" to 1/4" hose barb reducer at the hardware store easy enough. It may require two pieces, with one of those being male and one female, and threaded together with some thread tape.

Might be worth going with a full-on Sanke-to-Ball Lock Connector solution. Add the posts to your Sanke coupler and you can snap on your corny keg disconnects - no need to change anything around between keg types.

As long as your beer and gas lines have 1/4" FFL terminations there are other solutions as well...

Cheers!
