MFL or Barb for system...

[CCBrewer]

I am in the process of building my kegerator and just put my first commercial 1/6 keg in (sierra nevada Pale Ale).

I was thinking what is the best way to not have to cut and replace the tubing on the couplers to the faucets?

Should I get a kegging part the ball lock connector that is a tail piece? or go MFL and screw connect them ...



What do you guys/gals do to switch between commercial coupler and ball lock tanks?

FYI I have my faucet connected to 10 ft of bevflex and then to a 1/4 barb tail piece in a mfl nut would this work with just having this one faucet to a ball lock connector?

Check this conversion kit out...these new posts basically fit onto your Sankey coupler.

Those sankey/ball lock adapters are fine, but rather pricey. Especially since you already have the MFL fitting. Since already have an MFL fitting on your line I don't understand the question though? Yes, MFL is what you want. That way you can very easily swap between a sankey coupler and a ball lock QD, as long as you get both with the flare fittings.

Even without looking at cost I think the MFL fittings are the way to go. That way you can easily remove the ball lock QD to clean it or replace the o-ring.
