  • Beer Manifold or series of Tees

    I am putting together a multi-head counter pressure bottle filler and am wondering if a manifold like this is a good idea:

    Or will a series of Tees accomplish the same thing for cheaper. My only thought against Tees would be too much jostling past all the fittings to un-suspend CO2. Also, I imagine some variability in the flow rates for the first filler vs the last filler.

    Does anyone have experience with this manifold? It's from FOXXXX.

    There is a lot of room in that tank for co2 to breakout. I would go with a larger diameter feed hose breaking down to the four smaller ones. Just my 2cents.

      The tank would be pressurized so no CO2 breakout beyond the initial filling.

      Anyone else have experience with this contraption?
