Thank you day-trippr and Duncan… I’ll check what’s going on. Good to know the problem is not the bigger line. I was nervous!!! Really nervous after running everything new from start to finish
Basically I was wondering with the proper amount of line with a balanced system does 1/4” line cause more foam since it holds more beer and c02 in the line then 3/16” line. Just curious…
Correction. I hit the psi gauge with my arm and turned up the pressure. I set it to 12 psi. Slowed the pour down but it is very foamy. So I wonder if the foam going from 3/16 short run to 1/4 long run???
I re-configured and put everything back together. My beer is pouring to fast with all 1/4” beer line. If I choke it down to 3/16” which end do I choke it on the keg end or tap end? Also would 1/4” line cause more foam then the 3/16” line?
I can only find 1/4” beer line locally. I bought 25’ of that and will trim accordingly to adjust for pour. I’m going to take everything apart and run 1 continuous 1/4” beer line from tap to keg. How does that sound?
day_tripper suggested this…so I can basically do one of these methods below.
1) 20.5’ of 6mm EVA Barrier for my 17’ run and coil the rest in the kegerator
Or
2) Just run 17’ of 1/4” beer line with a foot or so of 3/16” choker
At this point I’m going to need to change how my line is run at the...
Hi guys, it’s a copper tap with a 3” copper pipe that runs all the way through the bar to the basement ceiling. It looks awesome but a bad design for changing the line. The line is 3/16 rubber beer hose not copper. It’s just to hard for trial and error each time. If I can come up with something...
Absolutely awesome information. I have another question. It’s not that I don’t want to do the work I just don’t completely understand. Also my mind in going in all directions. My questions is it would take me a whole day to take the bar and tap apart. Seriously it will because it’s all custom...
Ok I’ll try and use the minimum 3/16” hose to reach from tap to keg and see what will happen. I ran the new set up tonight. The beer line will be 17’
Thank you
Happy New Year everyone! When I was builing my original set up everyone here was great at helping me learn and answer questions. Im definitley a novice when it comes to kegging. I decided to change my current set up and I need help. I have a home bar on the first floor in my house, and want to...
Just shoot the IR thermometer at the keg? I figured because the keg was metal it wouldn't be accurate. But if it's that simple I already have a IR thermometer
