Cheapest possible Corny setup

[JontyR]

Its difficult to say unfortunately; you can get those taps in quite a variety of pipe fittings; did your ebay listing mention any sizes, at all?

Norm supplies 3/8" tubing, so at least that side of things is known. Other common sizes are 3/16ths and 5/16ths (amongst others) - you could have a look at the harmony hut on ebay, they do all sorts of fittings.

My Dalex is 5/16 if that's any help. I know Paul at Barley Bottom has some 3/8 to 5/16 john guest fittings. He'd probably throw you in a couple of inches of 5/16 line to get you from the fitting to the tap if you called him.

Hmmm....
Intersting thread, this will be my next HB 'investment'...

I'd like to know the height of a corni so I know if they will fit in my existing 'brew fridge' which I could convert to a kegerator...
I'd be grateful if anyone knows this or could measure one for me... I've emailed Norm for a quote for 2 kegs, a reg & mobile tap. I'm fairly certain i can talk a local independant brwery into lend/leasing me a gas cylinder at a fair price.


Cheers!

Yeah good stuff, have 2 corni's on the way, nothing else though so interesting times ahead

as a side note I use Jolly kegs, shorter and a bit more stout than a Corny but works well in my Incubator I also think better than Cornys as the lids don't drop inside if you loose pressure and I can get my arm with a brush to the bottom to clean.

Iv'e not heard of the Jolly tanks, but they look good. Still pricey though.
What is the contact for Norm. I cant find him.
Thanks,

normansplace@hotmail.com tho he might be on holiday ?? i was initially suprised to see no mention of polykegs till i dbl checked the dates of most of the posts in the thread..

check the forsale section as if asd still has some polykegs for sale they are a lot cheaper than cornies, and use the sankey S type couplers.

Also the Sankey style crusader kegs are cheaper than cornies. They are brand new and in my opinion better.
