I got the Austin Homebrew kegerator conversion kit for Christmas this year and I'm looking forward to having beer on tap in the garage. I have about 3 weeks before my Irish Ale will be ready to keg but I want to make sure everything is ready when the time comes.
I laid out all the pieces and connected the gas tube and beverage tube to the keg. The one part I can't figure out is how the beverage tube connects to the steel shank that will be installed in the door. I'm assuming I need a fitting or nipple to connect up the tube.
Here's the layout of all the pieces I have so far. I know I need a CO2 tank, but other than that, can any of you tell what fitting is missing for connecting the beverage tube to the shank/faucet assembly? Also, what is the small stainless nipple in the plastic package used for?
Thanks for your help and Happy New Year!
