Yes, they are 3/16. The corny outlet is 3/8 which I then put in a shut off tap and then a reducer to 3/16. A couple of metres of 3/16 in a coil in the fridge is then stepped up to 5/16 which goes out though the door to the beer tap.

I like my beer highly carbonated and found I needed the 3/16 line to reduce the pressure at the tap and thereby reduce the amount of froth

I use 3/16 for exactly the same reason. I bought 3 metres thinking I would need to trim it down in order to 'fine tune', but I find 10psi over that length pours a lovely pint, so I'll leave it alone!

Bit complicated for me. I like the idea of the simplicity of cask conditioning. Plus I don't want the added expense of C02.

I know what you mean. I didn't bother with this anymore and gave the fittings to a guy on Jimsbeerkit.

I think the picture problem is a glitch of the forum.

I have rotated the image.

I believe the problem occurs when you try to post a picture you have taken in landscape on your phone, if members post a picture and it is rotated 90 degrees PM me a link to the thread and i will alter it as soon as i can.

Those mini kegs look good. I guess they are reusuable?
