I plan on using this system for parties and picnics. No long term use. 1 day/overnite. I used copper to make the coils. (1/2" o.d. x 50') I'm going to use 1/4" i.d. tubing (flex), and hook it to the coil (approx. 10 ft.) then attach that to the tap. I figured I did not have enough resistance in the line with the copper coils. Hopefully this will restrict the flow enough to get a good pour. I plan on icing down the keg as well. How much CO2 pressure should I run for this sytem. Some guys have told me to hook everything up, then slowlly increase the CO2 pressure (from 0) up until you get a good pour, just enough to make the beer flow slowly. I'm just concerned with making the beer go flat, with not enough pressure. But I also dont want a firehose, when trying to pour my beer either, if I increase CO2 pressure. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.
