Hi,
First off, I love this duotight and EVA-Barrier system for both liquid & gas lines. I may post about my experience with it in the future.
I'm getting ready to purchase the iTap bottle filler, but I want to run my methodology for connecting a 5mm EVA-Barrier line to a 3/8" barb fitting on the rear side of the bottle filler. Tell me what you think. Alternate suggestions welcomed.
from keg: 4mm (or 5mm [8mm OD]) EVA-Barrier line > Duotight w/female flare > threaded ball lock > ball lock jumper > barbed ball lock > standard 5/16 inch beer line > itap.
Now, the standard beer line that will attach to the iTap should only need to be about 6" in length. After learning about the benefits of this EVA-Barrier line, I really don't want to use standard/common beer tubing, but perhaps a mere 6" line won't be a problem. Maybe I will wrap it in HVAC aluminum tape to help to oxygen out of the lines of that would help.
Tag, you're it!
