This is a follow up to my original post. Sorry if some people were confused or not interested.

I have attached a photo of my FOB.

I now understand there are 2 JG connectors at the bottom, one 'inlet' and the other 'outlet'
Therefore, i was wondering what the JG Fitting at the top is for.

Any help would be much appreciated before I connect it the wrong way!

Cheers

how come you need one? probably explained in the first post i missed eh?

the chap i bought my ebay chiller off in a clandestine car park meet up expected me to bite his hand off when he offered me one for £20, but i didnt know what it was then :) almost bought it not to appear stoopid, but thankfully realised that would be stoopid.

thankfully my lines are quite short and i dont need one at all..

good lock with the plumbing, and remember to disconnect the beer and open the tap to release pressure before splitting the line.. someone hrmmphh didnt and got a faceful of the good stuff

I would imagine it wasn't a case of not being interested, more a case that most folk don't use them for home bars so they can't comment, you'll see them more in pubs. I've never used one so can't help either I'm afraid. You can regulate fobbing with beer line if you ever go down that route, it's a case of making the pressure in the line the same as that in the keg, by stepping down is size for a certain length.
