keg dispension help please

[robsan77]

i have just come across a chest freezer. :party: Its not big, 17 inch square internal which will just fit 3 cornies and the gas. I will need to raise the top with a collar though but thats easy enough. What do I need to hook the gas up to all three??? will I get away with simply using a couple of tees?

I built a collar for mine and raised it too. Very simple. I ran a gas line from the CO2 tank outside of the freezer, through the collar, and into one of these:

Then from there, I distribute to the (in my case 2) kegs.

I ran two in my keggerator with one Tee and gassed up the other two just to condition. Much easier/controllable with a GM board from Norm

You could used a couple of Tees but really need 3 taps too so you can individually disconnect kegs. I can't see the 5/8" John guest taps anywhere for less than £4 each (ebay)

Why would you need taps?
There is a valve in the ball-lock disconnects that close when not connected.

If your going to pressure them all up to the same psi then one regulator and then tees to the kegs is fine. It's what I do now.

My issue I's when I first put my beer I to the keg I pressurise up to 20 psi to seal n let it settle. Then revert back to about 7 psi for serving. Pissin about changing the one reg I's a ball ache to me. So I'm swapping round n putting my 3 reg set-up in there so I can serve two kegs at 7 psi n have one reg set to 20-30 psi to keg up.

You mean on Corni disconnects? I'm thinking king kegs so you're right

You don't need to seal and settle at 2O in my experience. Just set to 7 for both seving and settling and it will do just fine.
