Making coils for jockey box?
Hey guys, I did a search but didn't come up with much.
I'm interested in making my own coils for a jockey box. I have a kegerator unit so I'll be stealing all the components from that when I need the box for camping trips and such. Buying a $125 coil set-up really isn't in my budget right now. Can coils like this be made cheaply? It looks like there are just compression fittings at the ends of the coils to connect to the faucet and inlet. I was thinking about using a party-pump style hose to dispense the beer so I'm not looking at using any faucets or shanks.
Also, I'd assume that the keg has to remain slightly cold even though the box is doing all of the cooling. Is this true? I just don't want to have foamy beer when we're camping.
