Jan Juc has just got kegged.

Many thanks to Ben at Grain & Grape for fixing me up with the equipment & Mark Hunter for helping me set it all up.

Awesome, that is what I need. Just need to convince the rest of the family first.

Cheers.

Only 1 tap running at the moment, but I'm kegging a DSGA tomorrow, so that will be 2; and I'm also brewing a scotch ale tomorrow, which will make it 3 in a couple of weeks (assuming the 1st 2 survive - it's a bit dangerous having large quantities of homebrew on tap...).

Throw a keg of soda water on while you wait. Trust me Its awesome.
And keep some lemons on hand, its nice to have the option as a distraction from the beer tap.

There's a distraction to the beer tap :o

I have 3 taps and can only keep one flowing with beer. It changes kegs regularly though

Thanks Smurto.

As a matter of interest, what length of beer line do you use? I'm using the full length as supplied - longer than necessary to connect keg to tap, but possibly needed to balance the system??

Either 2 or 3m per line. Can't recall and it's now tied up nice and neatly so can't tell. Longer than I've used in the past but seems to be working fine.
