kegging root beer with a picnic tap

[letsallgoforasoda]

I recently purchased a kit with 2 kegs and a triple body regulator, it also comes with picnic taps. I plan on kegging up a batch of root beer along with the beer I brewed a couple of weeks ago, once the last few things arrive and I make a trip to the lhbs to get co2

I have browsed through some old posts (and some really old posts) on hbt and don't know whether I'm setting my self up to fail. I saw a posts that mentioned needing to serve the root beer at 50-55 psi through 30 feet of tubing in order for it to be properly carbonated?

any one have any tips for carbing and serving root beer with a picnic tap?

I serve mine with a regular tap connected to the ball lock on my 2.5 gallon keg.

I carb mine in the fridge for about a week at 25 psi, and then serve it at about 15 psi.

But I dont like mine super carbonated.

What kind of root beer did you make? We like the Hires concentrate, but the Zatarains was pretty good too.
