GovReg® Secondary Regulators

GovReg® Secondary Regulators are a type of pressure regulator used in draft beer dispense systems. They are designed to provide precise and consistent control of the pressure applied to each individual keg, resulting in better pours and less wasted beer.

Here's how GovReg® Secondaries work:

  • Primary Regulator: A primary regulator is typically attached to the CO2 tank and reduces the high pressure from the tank to a lower, usable pressure.
  • Secondary Regulator: GovReg Secondary Regulators are then attached to the primary regulator's output line, one for each keg. They further reduce the pressure down to the specific level needed for that particular keg of beer.

Benefits of Using GovReg® Secondary Regulators:

  • Improved Pour Quality: By precisely controlling the pressure to each keg, GovRegs ensure that every pour is consistent, with the correct amount of carbonation and head.
  • Reduced Waste: Consistent pours mean less beer is wasted due to over-carbonation or under-carbonation.
  • Simplified System: GovRegs are compact and easy to install, even in tight spaces. They also eliminate the need for multiple secondary regulators, simplifying your dispense system.
  • Temperature Independence: Once you set the pressure on a GovReg, you can focus on ensuring the beer is at the correct temperature. This is because GovRegs compensate for minor temperature fluctuations, maintaining consistent carbonation levels.
  • Set It and Forget It: Once you've got your GovReg® dialed in, there is no need to mess with it, and you don't have to worry about anyone else messing with it as can be the case with traditional secondary regulators.

Things to Consider before purchasing GovReg® Secondaries:

Cost: GovRegs can save money over traditional secondary regulators, but they do require the purchase of an adjustment tool if you want the ability to change their output pressure.
Complexity: While they simplify the overall system, GovRegs themselves have more parts and require proper adjustment.

Overall, GovReg® Secondary Regulators can be a valuable tool for anyone who wants to improve the quality of their draft beer pours and reduce waste. However, they are not necessary for everyone, and the decision of whether or not to use them depends on your individual needs and budget.


Draft & Kegging Components » Push-In Tube Fittings

Say goodbye to clamps!  Push-in Duotight fittings and EVABarrier will revolutionize how you connect your draft beverage lines with their push-in fittings!  Easily connect and disconnect your draft lines - no need to use hose clamps or cut your tubing to remove it.   Worried about leaks?  You dont have to! Duotight fittings offer a superior connection and seal than similar push-in fittings. They'll hold tight even when your lines are turning a tight corner, and they're pressure rated up to 100 psi.  These push style draft beverage fittings, come with a variety of styles and sizes for all your draft beverage applications; use them as tailpieces on shanks and keg couplers, replace the swivel nut and barb on your flared ball lock or pin lock disconnects, or add in-line shut off or check valves to your draft lines. And with a few tees and ball valves, you can put together a gas manifold for a fraction of the price of a typical brass or aluminum manifold.

EVABarrier is the tubing of choice to be used with our line of Duotight fittings and other ush-in tube fittings. This high-quality double walled tubing offers superior protection against oxidation, CO2 loss and microbial growth. The outer barrier gives the tubing a nice stiffness that makes it extremely kink-resistant and perfect for use with push-in fittings.  Plus, it's BPA and PVC free.  The inner wall is an excellent gas barrier, keeping oxygen out and CO2 in. The internal surface of the tubing is extremely smooth, making it difficult for bacteria and microbes to cling to. All sizes of EVABarrier can be used for either gas or beverage line, but be sure to check the recommended lengths for beer lines.

Quickly setup and change all your draft systems with ease by implementing the duotight draft push fittings in your bar, restaurant or mancave!

Say goodbye to clamps! Push fittings are often used in draft beverage systems because they provide a convenient and reliable method for connecting tubing or hoses to other components in the system. The push-fit design allows for easy installation and removal of the tubing or hose, and the fittings typically have an O-ring seal that creates a secure and leak-free connection. Additionally, push fittings are often made from durable materials such as brass, stainless steel or food grade plastics, which can withstand the pressures and temperatures typically found in draft beverage systems. Overall, push fittings are popular in draft beverage systems because they are easy to use, reliable, and long-lasting.
