Hopefully this makes sense :)
I have a Blichmann beer gun which I find very handy :) I have a Wye adapter that splits the gas output into two. I'd like to use the line I use for the beer gun as a gas line for keg dispensing when not using the beer gun. It's a bit of a PITA to have to unscrew the thread each time I'd want to use the gun
I was thinking if I had a way to connect a gas disconnect and have it end in a 1/4" MFL then I could use the disconnect for the keg and then connect it the line if I use the gun
See the picture below. Any idea how I'd connect a gas disconnect via some mystery connector so that it ends in 1/4" MFL? That way the mystery connecter can always be connected to the beer gun and I just need to attach the disconnect to it when I want to use the gun
Obviously it's better if I can easily (cheaply) source it from here too :)
I'm a bit confused, a gas disconnect is 1/4" mfl already. Is it some kind of quick release your looking for, so you don't have to unscrew it each time?

Black ball locks are for product out (Colour of Cola is black)
gas in is Grey ( as in G for gas)
If you use 3/8" JG fittings to screw onto the ball locks then Bob is your fathers Bro!
Note to All: JGs are not meant to be used as quick disconnects. In the commercial world they are only ever pushed together once. As home brewers its tempting to use then as QDs.
If you do, just check the ends of the tubing as eventually it will get a bit rough and may start to leak. If so just trim off 1/4" of the pipe and ur good to go.
Also do not bend or strain the pipe entering the fittings. They are used in-line! Bend them hard and they will leak. For tight kegerator installations use a couple of 90 degree elbows and as above BiyU!
Got there before me as in black (B) connector is beer (B) and gas (G) connector is grey (G) ;).
When I sailed with the Irish navy I was told to look out for other ships on the sea at night and each ship had a red light on one side and a green light on the other. so to know if a ship is heading for you or moving away from you you checked which way the lights were. Red is port (left)and Green is starboard (right).
RED,Port,Left smaller spelling than
Green,Starboard,Right. :)
N.B. this story comes across better while were sitting on a bar stool and on out third pint or so :D
Yep i copied the wrong picture 😊
