    Default Beer Gas Balancing

    I am going to try my first go @ "Beer Gas" and a stout faucet. I have heard that the pressure should be 25PSI to 40PSI....

    Any recs for the length of 3/8 beer line for a balanced system with beer gas and what pressure will be required for a 75/25 mix?

    Thanks!

    If your doing a direct draw system you will be OK with 5" of 3/16"(not 3/8") @ 32 lbs. Also 38 degrees. This is all assuming your using a stout beer.
