So, after a few batches with bottles and fighting carbing like I wanted it I broke down and got two kegs (the fact AHI had them cheap helped sell it to the SWMBO).
I'm already going over all the threads I can find on here, but I've got a couple questions -
1) I know I need a regulator, lines, tank and hook ups. Can a 5# tank run a two keg system AND force carb?
2) If it isnt' enough to FC, can I still carb with sugar and wait the few weeks (like bottling) and then use tank to push? Do I need to reduce the amount of sugar due to the keg, or is it the same amount?
3) Ten feet minimum on the liquid line, right? Gas line doesn't matter?
4) Is there a video out there on how to correctly santize them for storage/right before use? I use idophore if that matters..
Got taken apart and cleaned up tonight - learned real fast which was the liquid post when I depressed the poppet to clear the pressure.
These things are really cool. Makes me want to get another one so I can have a keg/fermenter for lagering in the summer. Baby steps first - lets get these two filled and good to go.
