Hi! What a whirl wind it has been since my last post 3 months ago! I finally got my fermentation chamber issues resolved, parts for the keezer build ordered and finally some Spring-esque weather.
I have an idea for my keezer tap management system that I wanted to run by you all. I am going to purchase a Boel iTap bottle filler, but due to the amount I've already invested in this project, I had a notion to try to maximize the benefit of a single iTap with a 4-keg keezer. Here is the idea I am toying with:

I have an idea for my keezer tap management system that I wanted to run by you all. I am going to purchase a Boel iTap bottle filler, but due to the amount I've already invested in this project, I had a notion to try to maximize the benefit of a single iTap with a 4-keg keezer. Here is the idea I am toying with:
iTap bottle filler:
- Port 1: (gas)
- From iTap gas barb > tubing > keg ball lock > jumper ball lock > ball lock from Co2 manifold (borrowed from keg)
- Port 2: (beer {and no-rinse sanitizer})
- From iTap beer barb > tubing > keg ball lock >
- ... to whichever keg I want to bottle from Or
- ... to a reservoir with no rinse sanitizer to flush the iTap beer line and bottle filler prior to filling bottle.
Here in lies my further info I need to make this work. If possible, I was thinking: 32oz spray bottle > thread cap w/barb > tubing > ball lock > jumper ball lock > that would then connect to to the beer line coming off the iTap. The threaded cap w/barb may be impossible to find, but if this theory worked, I could then invert the "spray" bottle and squeeze it to force the no-rinse sanitizer thru it. What do you think? Do you have an alternate solution to the spray bottle for rinsing the iTap beer line?
