Hi
I have been serving my beer using a mini refrigerator and a picnic tap.
I am in the process of finishing a mini refrigerator build. I have converted the fridge so far by moving the freezer coils and the thermostat. The fridge cools down and the CO2 tank and two cornies fit.
I also have the tower and facets to be installed. First things first.
I have a gas manifold with the ability to have my CO2 tank serve three tanks. I only need two set up.
My existing CO2 tank of course has the red hose.
1) Should I just cut that hose and install the manifold and from there serve two keys?
2) The clamps that came with the tower are not your standard worm clamps. Can I just use a pliers to crimp them? Or, should I use worm clamps for both the gas and liquid side?
