Scott Zuhse,
Sorry, it's been awhile since I've checked the site. Dealing with the air bubbles still until I finished the 1/2 barrel. I just got a new 1/4 barrel of Bud light today & hoped for the best but the bubbles are still present. Since I wrote the first post I did a little research on the specs of a kegger system. My specs on the system are 18' of 1/4" hose ( inside the fridge ), 3' of vertical lift from the center of the barrel to the faucet, 12 psi ( which I changed to try to get better flow with no luck ) a glass of water inside the fridge is 33.5 degrees & when it comes out of the faucet is 38.6 degrees in a room temp glass .I just cleaned the lines & lubed/ checked the "o" rings on everything. I'm starting to wonder if the lines need to be special beer lines other than hardware store lines? The supply line leaves the side of the fridge inside a 1" pvc tube that connects to the shank with clamps, I thought it would be like a refridgerated conduit. The total distance of the "conduit" is 2 1/2'. It seems like pin size air bubbles form in the line leaving voids in the entire line leading to foamy beer. I'm hoping that you can help me with my problem so I can enjoy draft beer at home!!
Thanks
Beaver
