Step 8Cut the lines.
That's right, we're cutting the lines. The tap tower's end with hook ups for commercial kegs. Which while nice wont even fit into this fridge. Seriously if you wanted to use those you should have bought a different fridge. This bad boy is designed to hold home brew!
So cut the ends off the lines and then attach liquid ball lock disconnects. This amounts to shoving the line onto the barb and crimping it in place. If your using threaded connectors you'll need to attach the beer lines to the barb on the end of that and then screw those into the disconnects. A lot of the time I hear about people's threaded connectors leaking. This is simply because they don't have the things screwed into the disconnects tightly enough. So if your using MFL threaded connectors grab a wrnech and tighten them up well.
Don't bother buying a crimper for this sort of thing, you can use a set of wire cutters and it works perfectly.
