I know this has been beat to death, and I could do a search, but I figure why not just post in case anyone else is in the same boat I am. I am getting parts together to get my new to me kegerator up and running. My latest question is in regards to beer lines and lengths. I have read on Morebeers site that if using the 4mm ID Evabarrier tubing it is recommended that there be a 5 to 6 foot run of tubing. That is about what I have now with the old kegerator I am using and while it does foam a bit, I cannot say whether that is pressure in the keg being off, no cooling fan in the tower or line is too short. So, my question to you all is this: My pressure is usually in the 10 to 12psi in the keg, my FG on most of my beers is between 1.012 to 1.008 or so, I will have a cooling tube running up thru the tower (a small hose taped to the fan as the hose did not come with the unit). The tower I am using sits about 1 foot tall and the kegs fit nicely with about 2 to 3 inches of space at least. With all this being said, and according to the info on the description on Morebeer, I should be ok. But, what say all of you?
Also, I am hoping to use the Duotight 1/4push i" to 4mm fitting at the shank since I don't want to buy all new ones when there are perfectly good. My shanks are 1/4 inch I believe and are barbed, so I am hoping I can use the push in fittings and just push them over the barb. I will find out I guess when I order everything and start putting it together. Here is a link to what I am talking about:
