pressure for Smithwick's?

[Figla]

I just purchased a Haier kegerator and I'd like to christen it with a half barrel of Smithwick's. Does anyone know what the proper CO2 setting and temperature should be? I'm also considering purchasing a Smithwick's tap handle but I read the following on the Micromatic FAQ's:

25. Q. Will all handles fit all faucets?


All of our handles will screw on to any US beer faucet lever. Be aware that Europe uses a different size standard for faucet threads. This means that European faucet handles will not fit US faucets, and US faucet handles will not fit European faucets.


Currently there is no adapter piece available for fitting European handles to US faucets or vise versa


I'm wondering if this would be the case for the model I just purchased. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers!!

Normal Free Flow faucet will suffice. If you want a euro style faucet, you will have to change the shank. Many of these style faucets and shanks will not fit the pedestals that come with the kegarators.

As to [u]beer</u> temp and pressure, start at 38 F @ 13 PSIG.
