I'm planning to make my own Jockey Box and I was interested in making my own coils. Stainless steel coils seem nice, but its just not in the college budge right now, and if I can get away with something cheaper that would really be great. I already have the CO2 tank, cooler, tap and shanks, so this is the only major concern remaining.
Could Vinyl tubing be used in place of SS coils? I was thinking of of using about 100' of 3/16" I.D. vinyl tubing (with the appropriate fittings etc). My initial assumption would be that if it's arranged properly to avoid kinks, etc., 100' of vinyl tubing should cool the beer quite well. Would a different I.D. be better?
Thanks
