Hey Dave,
You planning on stocking Jockey Box coils and fittings? Or is this something you could source? Just wondering a price. Hoping to have one built out for next summer. I think it will be interesting to tell the wife hahaha.
Thanks again for the great service. I'll probably see you again in the next couple weeks.

Re: Jockey Box coil
I have made some 20 ft 1/4" OD coils. Interested?

Re: Jockey Box coil
20' would be great for a prechilled keg, however I'm buildign this out to take a weekend punishment. Not sure 20' will keep the beer cold enough with 4-5 guys pouring off it.mr x wrote:I have made some 20 ft 1/4" OD coils. Interested?
What's your experience with warm kegs and the 20' length?

Re: Jockey Box coil
Never used warm kegs. In fact, I've never seen anybody do that.
Also, the tubing I am using is 1/4", not 3/8" as most commercial coils are.

Re: Jockey Box coil
Yea preferably I don't want to use warm kegs, however out for a camping trip the luxury of chilling before hand goes away after the first nightmr x wrote:Never used warm kegs. In fact, I've never seen anybody do that.

Let me see what I can find. I'm interested if they will serve chilled on the camp trip.

Re: Jockey Box coil
Shipping isn't cheap but I used stainlessbrewing.com for my HERMS coil, great guy and will pretty much do anything custom you want.
I was going to do a jockey box too, but now instead I want to do what some HBT guys have done. 2 mini kegs (2.5gal) in a cooler with shanks through the side and paintball Co2. Fully self contained and very portable.

Re: Jockey Box coil
That's a great idea. Bonus tho. No cleaning bottles.
