Kegerator help

[labrewski]

Currently going to tidy up my lines and have the ability to carbonate 2 kegs but where is best place to put manifold and how
I'm thinking tec7 or glue or first a piece of timber then the piece also is the nut on left hand side any use if I put it flush to the side will it hamper me

Current set up is just too messy

Probably doesn't help you because you don't have a freezer but that's why I built the collar on mine. The manifold is mounted to it on the far right and the CO2 cylinder sits outside of the freezer.

Is the nut on the side of any use does anyone know

I have a tall fridge and have mine on the right hand side just above the height of the top of the low kegs. It’s attached with 2 small-ish screws and a healthy helping of No More Nails

The nut blocks the end of the manifold off, you could probably have a left or right hand inlet if you wanted.

Worried about screws damaging the body that's why I was thinking glue or glue timber then screw

What's the little white box for on one of your lines

Looks like a pressure valve.

@labrewski
It's an inline regulator from kegland. Means you can have different pressure on that line. I have my gas reg set at 30 psi it spurred to a carbonated water keg, then next line comes off and has the inline regulator set to 13 psi and the beer gas lines come off that. Trouble is the dial is really small so difficult to read in the back of the fridge. I spurred another line out of my keg fridge with a lower reading gauge on so tweaks to the inline reg can be read on the outside and also good indicator if a problem arises.

It’s a secondary regulator so I can have that line on a different pressure from the others.

I spoke to Johnny at BKT about this as I wanted to mount my manifold outside my kegerator on the right hand side. He said thread lock adhesive is used on it, so in theory yes, you can remove the nut and swap it with the inlet valve, but whether in practice you can is another matter. Plus you'd void the warranty.

I don't know whether you can buy them off the shelf in the configuration I wanted or if you can request it; I didn't think to ask.
