FAQ
What is a jockey box?
A jockey box is a portable draft beer dispensing system that uses a cold plate or coil to chill beer as it flows through.
What is the purpose of a CO2 tank and regulator in a jockey box setup?
The CO2 tank provides the necessary pressure for dispensing beer from a keg, while the regulator controls the flow and pressure of gas from the tank to the keg.
How do I know how much CO2 is left in my tank?
Weighing the CO2 tank when it is empty and full can give you an idea of how much gas is left. A good rule of thumb is to plan for about one pound of CO2 for every half barrel keg you're pouring.

Four to six feet is a standard length for both gas and beverage lines, but the length may vary depending on the setup.
