I just installed a 4 way manifold on one of my gas lines of my keezer. The tank has a dual regulator on it, I wanted to keep one for carbing and then use the rest for serving pressure, I like to keep it simple and don't really vary on volumes that much. This also allowed me to move my tank outside my keezer.
My first observation, and its weird, is that my serving pressure seems low compared to what it was, and when I bleed the tanks from the top, they are slow to repressurize. I can tell its a much slower pour from the tap as well.
The ID of the line from the regulator is the same as it was, the regulator setting hasn't changed at all, but I can't for the life of me figure out why gas would flow slower than before (unless the ID of the ball valves controlling the manifold outputs is significantly smaller, but I can't see it being that drastic).
Now, my question is do I turn up the pressure to compensate, although I wouldn't know what it is outside of what the reg is set at? Or do I just leave it, the pressure will be 12psi regardless what the flow rate out the tap is and it won't cause a problem? Search did not help me in this case
TIA!
