Thanks for the info. I guess it makes sense. I thought that the pump and insulation would have been a bit better than to loose that much temp., considering that the beer starts at 38 also.
How about if there's an added cooler right by the tower. I've got 2 bar coolers, but not enough room in them for kegs (still sell bottles), but could easily run a cold plate or coil. There's already a cold plate there for the soft drink lines which run nearly 80' from their pump in the basement. Ice is not the best option if someone forgets to fill it.
I guess the problem I have is that if the $$ are too high, it just ain't gonna happen, so I'm struggling to find an alternative.
Thanks, Doug
