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 keep the kegerator in the basement below. I need help on what size diameter line and how long. I tried to read all the charts on the internet but im more confused now then when I started. Here are my distance runs...
6' vertical from top of tap to basement
7' horizontal across basement ceiling
4' vertical from ceiling into kegerator
-----------
17' total
I have a glycol chiller so im not worried about cooling the beer lines between the kegerator and tap. I usually drink lagers and lite beer. Right now for my old set up my kegerator is set to 12 psi and the kegerator is 39 degrees. That stuff i can change but i need help with what size line length and diameter. Right now I have 3/16" line from my old set up which was 13' total. Is it a big difference adding 5'? Can i just use a stainless steel barb and add 5' of 3/16" hose and call it a day? Its really difficult for me to keep changing the line in the tap so i need advice to do it only once.
Thank you for taking time out of your day to help me!
