You do, but you're able to, at least if you time it right. Let's say – as you assume – your primary/dispense keg is already stable; it's carbonated and you have a batch waiting in secondary, and you …

Cold crash to help sediment and compact yeast. Safely tip the carboy 10-15° so you can maximize beer extraction at the end of racking (I use a couple of paperbacks). Do any movement or tipping of your …

The only and main problem I see is that the dip tubes in the kegs are made to be used with kegs in the vertical position. That is to say, the bottom of a corny keg is concave, and dip tubes are cut t …

I have a similar setup: 4 kegs/taps, one dual regulator with a T to split the gas lines. The positives/negatives are either obvious (cost of 4 regulators, having 4 independent controls vs. 2) or as y …

Is there a dip tube + o-ring there on top of the threads of the post? I can't quite make one out in the blurriness. But even the height of a dip-tube lip + oring might not be enough to bridge that ga …

The lever does not seal the lid. Sufficient pressure in the keg pushes the lid against the o-ring and against the top of the keg, sealing the lid; the lever just holds it all in place. Add more CO₂ p …

Yes. The relation between temperature, pressure and volumes of CO₂ are true at higher-than-fridge temperatures, as well. The biggest difference is that with the higher pressure required for the carbo …

Yes, the 8" line length of the "Flexi-tap" kit is going to require a much lower serving pressure to pour without excessive foam. The ~5' line length of the "Beer line assembly" will let you keep the ~ …

For kegging, you need: a keg ;) a way to introduce CO₂ a way to dispense beer From what you've listed, you will need either: the regulator, and also: a CO₂ tank to go along with it (not listed) …

[EDIT: I missed a potential misconception you have about transfering the yeast when kegging:] Usually, you will attempt to minimize how much yeast you transfer into the kegs, as instead of using priming …

No, it will not. A concern you might have if the keg was full would be the sudden foaming as you depressurize, which might overflow the keg. But at 1/4 full, no problem. If you're concerned about O₂, …

Let's separate this out into two phases: carbonation and dispensing. Carbonation inside a keg can be done just like carbonation inside a bottle: by the addition of a specific amount of sugar, which w …

Because that's not how gasses work. :) Gasses in a space, especially under pressure, are going to come into an equilibrium, a homogeneous combination. While during active fermentation, or for a brief …

Nope. ID really all that matters with respect to line-length resistance and system tuning. The OD does not matter, though it does make me question what type of material the tubing is … which would a …

They are slightly differently sized. In particular, the grey gas fitting will fit over the "out" post, but the black liquid fitting will not fit over the "in" post without significant pain. But, yes …
