So I've been brewing since last Christmas and the wife just asked what I wanted for this year... so obviously I turned my thoughts to kegging. I'm thinking to start small with a Keezer conversion and 2 kegs with another line for carbing. Everything I've read has said to go ahead and begin with good quality equipment because I'll end up wanting to upgrade anyway. The problem is the wife is buying and I need to keep the price reasonable 🙄. My questions are:
Has anyone had good success with Keg Connection? They seem straight forward and easy to customize.
I'm thinking to get a dual body regulator (primary) and unsure whether to go with a 2-way distributor ($23+) or a secondary regulator ($75+). Obviously if the price is acceptable to SWMBO I'd like to go with the extra regulator to serve beers on different pressures. I drink mostly IPAs, pale/cream ales, some Belgians and Scottish ales. How important is the difference in serving pressures with these styles? Is it worth the extra money?
And what are the actual mechanics of connecting the secondary to primary with a dual body regulator and/or distributor? Can I add more regulators in series and what equipment is needed?
Finally, with the end game being to have 5-6 beers on tap at some point (AKA when financially feasible and approved by the lovely SWMBO) is this the best way to start out while allowing for future growth?
Any and all advice and/or redirecting is appreciated. Thanks in advance for the help!!
