This stainless steel tee is perfect for gas application, but can be used wherever a tee with hose barb fittings is required. It has three 3/8" barb connections, one on all ends, and is therefore able to split gas off in two separate directions from the source.
Beer shanks to make all your dispensing dreams come true! These chrome plated brass shanks are used in a variety of setups to create draft systems. A 3/16" bore is perfect for liquid dispensing of all types, including sweet sweet beer. This 5" shank (actual measurement: 5 1/8") is slightly longer than the standard 4" shank and works when you need just a little more length. Simply drill out your hole, place your shank through, and lock in place with the included lock nut. A faucet can then be attached to the outside of your draft setup, whether it be a kegerator, keezer or jockey box! Also needed on the inside is a 3/16" tailpiece, neoprene beer washer and beer nut.
You can never have too many disconnects! For all your pin lock draft needs, Great Fermentations offers you these liquid pin lock disconnects. Easy to take apart and clean, these have their uses not only in picnic taps, jockey boxes and home draft systems, but in a number of other brewing-related projects. These disconnects have a 1/4" MFL connection, which is perfect for attaching a swivel nut set for myriad applications. They have a plastic end on the male flare fitting so you don't have to use a plastic flare fitting washer when connecting them to metal. Make sure you have enough on hand for all the kegging and draft projects your mind can come up with!
Use this portable CO2 charger as a way to dispense beer from a Corny keg without dragging along your CO2 tank. No tanks. No hoses.

Charger connects directly to a gas ball or pin lock disconnect to dispense beer.
Have some extra tubing on hand for all your kegging needs! 5/16" inner diameter tubing is the standard tubing used in kegging and carbonation systems in the U.S. The Bevlex tubing we carry is thick-walled for extra protection and security when carbonating. This can be used on all standard CO2 connections in your draft system.
Inner Diameter: 5/16 in.
Outer Diameter: 9/16 in.
The secret weapon for keeping a clean brewery! A double ended brush can come in handy for cleaning all those hard-to-reach places, not only in your dispensing system, but also in your brewing equipment. The two ends have two different sizes brushes, which come in handy in cleaning faucet parts, keg posts, dip tubes, racking arms, ball valves, bottle fillers...the list goes on! Keep every nook and cranny of your brewing equipment clean with one of these. Highly recommended to anyone who owns a keg or a permanent dispensing setup.
German beer lovers rejoice! This "A" style German slider keg coupler, also known as a tap, is just what you need to get beer flowing from German kegs! This coupler is like no other, with a cupped mount that slides onto the keg and locks in place when engaged. This is the most widely used keg coupler in Germany, and while it will not work with all German beer kegs, it does work with most of them, as well as with a few Belgian kegs. Among the breweries that use the "A" coupler are Ayinger, Achouffe, Bitburger, Franziskaner, Hacker-Pschorr, Hoegaarden, Paulaner, Spaten, and Warsteiner. This coupler comes with the gas side connections, but does not include the liquid side connections which consist of a 3/16" liquid tailpiece, a beer nut and a neoprene washer.
Bevlex tubing is a high quality thick-walled tubing. This 3/16" tubing works well for beer line, as it is the standard inner diameter for most serving systems. While the thinner walled tubing may also be used, this thick-walled tubing is recommended for permanent installations, such as on a kegerator or keezer dispensing system. It is also recommended when a thicker wall would come in useful. It is more durable and can withstand more pressure than the thinner-walled version.
Inner Diameter: 3/16 in.
Outer Diameter: 7/16 in.
The ball and pin lock disconnects used in kegging have a small washer that fits inside, creating a seal that allows the disconnects to properly allow for the flow of gas and liquid. Without this washer, you risk breaking the seal and causing all sorts of trouble with leaky disconnects! If your disconnect washers become damaged or go missing, you can simply replace them with these washers!
This CO2 shutoff with 1/4" MPT threading and check valve is ideal for use with CO2 regulators and manifolds! It has 1/4" MPT right-hand threading on one side that threads into most standard regulators and manifolds. On the other end is standard 1/4" MFL threading, which works perfectly with standard swivel nut sets and other 1/4" MFL fittings. If using a swivel nut set, we recommend using a plastic flare fitting as well, in order to create a good seal. Get one of these to replace a damaged or missing shutoff, put on a wye splittler, or create your own CO2 apparatus!
A 3-way manifold is the perfect way to carbonate three kegs at once, or to pressurize kegs and run a Blichmann BeerGun at the same time! The CO2 can be hooked up from the regulator via the barb on the side of the manifold using standard 5/16" ID Bevlex tubing and worm clamps, and the other barbs can be run with the same tubing to gas disconnects for carbonating and dispensing from kegs, or to other CO2 driven devices. When mounted, the barbs run straight downward. Includes shutoff valves on the three top barbs on the manifold, which give another level of protection from lost CO2!
The original Guinness coupler! This keg coupler, popularly known as a tap, works on Guinness, Harp and Kilkenny kegs, as well as Smithwicks, Magners and a few select others. It is a "U" style keg coupler that is not commonly used by breweries, but is used by those mentioned. If you want to tap a keg of any of these, you will need a "U" coupler! This coupler includes the gas side connections. Not included is the a 3/16" liquid tailpiece, beer nut and neoprene washer.

Remove the faucet from the shank using the spanner wrench, and attach the cleaning solution container to the shank with the spanner wrench. Pump solution through the liquid line and out into a bucket, then allow solution to sit in the lines for a few minutes. Fill the cleaning solution container with water and pump through to flush lines. Use the double ended brush to clean faucet and coupler, then flush with water and reassemble. Repeat when changing kegs to keep beer flowing free of foaming issues, beer stone buildup and bacterial infection.
This 5/16" tailpiece works with standard 5/16" ID CO2 tubing. Most often, these are found on the CO2 side of sanke couplers. Used in conjunction with a beer nut and a neoprene beer washer, these tailpieces can create a tight seal for CO2. Useful as a replacement on kegerator setups, make sure you have one on hand in your draft emergency kit!
A 4-way manifold is the perfect way to carbonate four kegs at once, or to pressurize kegs and run a Blichmann BeerGun at the same time! The CO2 can be hooked up from the regulator via the barb on the side of the manifold using standard 5/16" ID Bevlex tubing, and the other barbs can be run with the same tubing to gas disconnects for carbonating and dispensing from kegs, or to other CO2 driven devices. When mounted, the barbs run straight downward. Includes shutoff valves on the four top barbs on the manifold, which give another level of protection from lost CO2!
Oetiker clamps provide a permanent clamping solution! This style of clamp has a 1-ear design, which means they are crimped at a single point on the clamp to create a superior seal over your tubing. These medium Oetiker clamps are often used on 3/16" thick-walled tubing that is used in some liquid applications and in draft systems. These clamps hold tight, creating a great seal that holds for a long time! Some people prefer these for more permanent systems. If you are looking to switch over to a snug seal that lasts, make sure you use Oetiker clamps!
Smooth and straight! This flange for the inside of your beer tower is made of black plastic. It is curved on one side to fit the curvature of the beer tower.
