    Is it important that the pressure going to the iTap is slightly higher than to the keg?

    I'd say "no" for two reasons: A) Because if you leave it like that, no beer will flow from Keg to iTap (and thus bottle) - because it can't move towards higher pressure. B) you open up the "exhaust" of the iTapX anyways to fill the bottle. This will drop the pressure. And maybe C) it would require two pressure reducers attached to two different CO2 bottles (unless you have a Y-Adaptor) - which is very unpractical. Hope I didn't say that in the video?!

    Hi. Could I have the dimensions of the stand you made? I have an itap on order and would like to build something similar in preparation for it's arrival

    ​@@BernhardSchlegel - thanks very much. I just watched the video again and you said you have a CAD file for it? That would be very handy if you have a DXF or DWG file I could have?

    Unfortunately not, ordered it on a lokal LED store. But any "waterproof aluminium LED stripe" should do :)

    Thanks a lot for the video. I never saw a system with glass bottles. I bought the Pegas system 6 years ago and still use it today. Pegas you can use only with plastic bottles. But it is very very good. kzread.info/dash/bejne/hIiY1aWLgqrIqZs.html Never used it for long term bottling. I used it more for, “I am going to a party, fill some bottles and go…!” I am also using a Pygmy 25 now instead of my Keezer, which can process 25 liters an hour. My system is 50 liters. 2 hours bottling plus all the cleaning? Definitely worth considering though! Thanks again!
