Nice build! I looked into doing this myself, but after I ran a build sheet the price was around $340. I opted to purchase one pre-built with stainless components from amazon for about the same price. But for those who like the feeling of satisfaction to be gained from building one at home, your video and parts list are phenomenal!
Just use stainless steel tubing and everything's fine, not as easy to bend but at that radius it should not be a problem. Awesome work dude! Copper's OK to cool down wort but I wouldn't want to serve beer out of it honestly even though house water lines are mostly made out of copper but as you mentioned in contact with acidic sanitizers such as StarSan etc. I would not use copper.
Hey Larry! Just wanted to let you know that 2 years after your video, I finally made my own jockey box following your set up. Just some minor differences: I used aluminum since copper in Argentina is too expensive, and didn’t use the connectors you have on the back side, just passed the coil through the cooler. Today’s the first day, wish me luck!
BEER-N-BBQ by Larry I lived in DC for a couple years and bought all the things except the coil. Once here in argentina I wanted to get copper but it’s three times the cost of aluminium. Haven’t seen SS coils though. Will let you know how it works tomorrow, I have a party tonight (kegs will be cold), and another tomorrow (warm beer), so I’ll test it in both scenarios. Thanks mate, marry Christmas!
Hey Larry - I made a portable keezer out of a herby kerby. It works well, but is bulky to transport. I will now use your guidelines to build a jockey box. Thanks for sharing!
Larry, this is a fantastic video with great detail. This is going to be my next project and I greatly appreciate you taking the time to go through everything in such detail! Cheers my friend!
If you’re going with copper, keep in mind that if you let beer sit in the coil too long, the next beer with taste like pennies thus wasting beer. I’m currently in the process of having stainless steel coils made for me to replace the copper so I do not have to worry about tasting copper in the future.
Larry, are you still happy with the copper coils and any issues after use? I am up in the air when deciding to use copper or stainless for the coils on my build. Thoughts?
@@BEERNBBQBYLARRY great info. I've heard the same regarding copper, so stainless looks to be the better route. Too bad it's so expensive now, but will last the longest.
If I were to do it from scratch knowing what I know now, I’d go with stainless steel. However, you’ll need longer coil to get equivalent chilling as copper due to lower thermal conductivity.
@@BEERNBBQBYLARRY very true. I am still going to go to with 50' stainless, keeping in mind that both kegs will be in an ice bucket to make sure there's adequate cooling keeping things nice and chill.
Yours is my new favorite channel Larry. I too am into BBQ and I'm just learning to brew. After extract batches I am interested in making the leap to all grain. And right now a kegerator is a bit of an expensive item so the jockey box idea may just come in handy thanks!
Awesome. I brewed extract for years before going all-grain and haven't looked back. I wouldn't ever use a jockey box in place of a real fridge. They're only intended for temporary serving at parties; not a permanent solution. This is especially true with copper and brass. If you leave the beer in the copper line for hours without using it, it'll corrode the copper and add the copper to the beer. If you still want to use a jockey box, you should get stainless steel coils.
Hey.. I used copper for a few years.. Thought I cleaned it good enough.. Then after going a few month not using it, I made a beer I drink all the time.. It was great in my fridge.. Took it camping and used the Jockey box... I set it up and poured my first glass... The taste was a little off but not bad.. Then we went out wakeboarding for a few hours.. I came back and went to drink a glass of Ice cold home brew... Taste still had a metallic taste to it.... But more important.. Just as I finished the glass my stomach just wreched up... and I puked it out.. had a horrible headache for the rest of the day... Took it all home and cut up the coils and they were copper green and gross... The beer in the Keg once cold was again delicious... as long as not going through those coils..... Yes I always cleaned them out with detergent and then I would boil water and put it into a Keg and flush through 5 gallons of almost boiling water.....So just be careful....
Love this, once I get my Anvil Foundry and move on to 5gal batches I am certainly going to make one of these for parties and lake days, thanks so much for all of your informative content.
If you're traveling, you may want to check out my mobile draft system video: ruclips.net/video/i4tDMIEVMuQ/видео.html. So much easier than lugging all this copper and other gear.
Copper not an issue with beer --- but the beer line cleaner is. There are places to purchase already coiled stainless steel coil that is perfect for this project.
Excellent video. I'm building one next week using 50' coils and that specific cooler. You saved me a lot of hassle of figuring out where to put everything.
Very Informative video! I'm NEW to all this, however my concern is a very old one dating back to Roman times - how can you control the leaching of the copper when beer is allowed to set in the copper for any length of time? It's my understanding beer has a PH of 4.3 ish -- depending on the yeast and hops used - then the factor of the hardness of the water becomes part of the unknown equation as well, and finally the contact time of all factors involved. Why not use a safer and more thermally effective metal like aluminum to circumvent at least some of these issues? Please reply as I'd like more info, Thank You
These instructions were so detailed and easy to follow that I don't even brew beer and I want to make one now. I do make wine though, wonder how I could possibly utilize this with my wine. 🤔
I know this was posted last year, and someone else has probably commented on it, but using copper a great cleaner is vinegar, the problem with the copper is if you don't use it constantly it does erode and you'll get that great green color out of it
Instead of a wall coupling, could i just have the tube go through the jockey box instead and seal it with silicone? Is there a specific reason for why we use a wall coupling?
2:40, Another goal to consider is that you want the tap outlet somewhat conveniently high enough to get tall beer glasses/mugs under the tap outlet. Otherwise you're forced to position the jockey box at the table edge.
Why didn’t you simply pump off the gas and then cut the vacuum & return line install fittings so that you can then use braided copper or stainless steel flex lines to make the moving of the cold side cooler into your cooler. I would use a 10 gallon stainless steel tank instead of a cooler. You can use styrofoam to make it insulated. Also be sure to put in a low speed fountain pump to keep your glycol well mixed. Then use a stainless steel coil in the stainless steel tank connected to drinking potable water side, put a vacuum pump on the refrigerant lines to get the correct vacuum pressure return the refrigerant plus extra for the space of additional lines. Test for leaks and good to go, also recommend using GFI Ground fault protection for all of your electrical systems.
Two reasons: Simplicity and cost. What you’re describing is no longer an inexpensive jockey box that can be used anywhere outdoors but a powered DIY fridge. lol
Check with the NSF or your local food and restaurant inspectors ((in my county this is handled through the environmental health section of the health department)) . In my food service training we were tough that co2 reacts with copper to produce copper oxide which is toxic I'm small quantities. Stainless steel beverage grade tubing is what is used in commercial production and would probably be available through a company that installs and services dispensing equipment.
Isn't it possible to get those 9L cornelius kegs? I think you'd be able to fit one or two inside the box along with CO2, so you could skip the copper tubing all together! Great video btw!
Killer ty sir subbed hella helpful Going with yetis I have one now about to be one or 2 more. What about dry ice? Sorry if I missed you saying that having a ruff holiday man
Hey Larry.. love the channel.. what PSI are you running with the line length in this jockey box?? I just built one and curios to know working pressure.. thanks.. party is Saturday!!! Happy canada day.. ps. thanks for the updated brew spread sheet with metric!!!!!! Saves so much time now.. your the best
I have an innovation for you. If the air inside the tube enters the copper with a fan or air pump and the copper is immersed in the iced water from the outside, you will get cool air as a result of air friction with the copper pipes. Repeat the process Make the air entrances at least five and the five exits are immersed in cold water with ice.
Larry thanks for a good idea. I want to ask here in the comments. Sorry I don't speak English, so I listened to you, it was interesting, but I didn't understand everything :(. But there is a keyboard and google translator :) 1. Were there any problems with sanitation in connection with the use of copper. In industrial devices, stainless steel is everywhere. 2. Isn't this pipe length extra? 3. I saw on aliexpress a stainless steel chiller 8 meters, diameter 8 mm. Local stores have 1/4 "copper from 1 to 45 meters. For me, a pipe diameter of 7mm or so is more suitable for a foam-free filling system. What do you advise from your experience? I have not found such solutions on the Russian-language Internet. Thank you
Contact with copper by its nature kills living things and impedes bacteria growth which is why it was used for plating the hulls of wooden ships centuries ago; to keep barnacles and wood rotting bacteria away. That alone isn't enough for sanitation. (Sanitizing is still needed.) However, it is also a soft metal more susceptible to dissolving in acids such as star san, so contact time should be keep to a minimum. The problem with using smaller diameters of tubing is that you need increasingly higher pressures to push a liquid through it meaning that you'd have to really crank of the pressure on the keg just to get a beer to pour. The longer your beer line is, the larger of a diameter you need to keep the required pressure down. 25 ft (or 50 ft) of copper tubing plus the keg line to the copper is a VERY long length, so a larger diameter makes more sense from an applied pressure perspective.
@@BEERNBBQBYLARRY Sure, I that makes sense. If it's not in there long, it may taste fine. I will say, that the use of copper pipe for beer lines is not permitted for commercial use. At least not in ohio. codes.ohio.gov/ohio-administrative-code/rule-4301:1-1-28
sanitizing probably isnt necessary (not saying its a bad idea) as this is a temporary dispensing solution I would imagine. Getting the lines clean probably is the bigger issue in my opinion. excellent video though. well done.
Hi my friend. I live in Brasil and all of that stuff that you show in your video, we can not find here. Can you tell me if this parts i can find in a american site, and if they can send me here in Brasil? Thanks. Alexandre.
BEER-N-BBQ by Larry thanks for clarifying. This is for serving outside in a mobile van. Out in the sun all day so without power this would seem the perfect option. Unless it’s a bit overboard coldness-wise. I forgot to mention also that it’s carbonated wine. Am I barking up the wrong tree with considering using this? Thanks for your help :)
Using copper tubing to make a coil for dispensing beer is a no no. The carbonic acid from the CO2 in the beer will leach copper into your beer and poison you. It may be a slow death, but your choice. Also, off flavors will occur. Using copper to build a wort cooler is fine as there are no acidic conditions to leach copper. Use stainless tubing. Cheers!
Hello, my friend, everything is fine with you, congratulations for your video, my name is Marco, I live in Brazil, I do not know how to speak English, but I'm trying to put it together, I'm trying to put together a coop that's the best I've ever seen, That I do not understand your list that you added in the post, would be kind if you do not ask me to send me a tutorial, with image with names of the pieces so I can take the store and show the seller what I am M. Here I leave you a big hug and congratulate again for your video that was the best I've seen until today. Thank you, I await your return as soon as possible
It's less about flavor than leaching copper into your beer. Copper is fine pre-fermentation. Finished beer has a very low pH and is very acidic which reacts with copper. Excess copper is toxic, plain and simple. Realities of modern science prevail. You can't use tradition as a defense since people used to do stupid stuff like making pipes out of lead.
White Distilled Vinegar. In John Palmer's book "How to Brew" he explains how it is safe for copper and notes that heating it up makes it more effective.
You should never use copper to drink beer from. It will always taste metallic. Use stainless steel. It is more expensive but it won’t corrode and won’t have a taste.

Ah yeah, you’re using copper which is more restrictive than stainless, oversight on my part.
What's the dimension of the beer shank? I'm from Paraguay in South America and I'm planning building this.
Where do i get that equipment?
Curious what length the copper coil needs to be to sufficiently cool the beer coming from your keg?
Nice video. How much did that rig cost to make? I’m thinking maybe stainless coil. I know a lot more expensive
I don't remember. I've had some of the spare parts used for many years and the price of copper has been crazy.
100% use stainless steel. I feel bad for all the people that followed this video and have copper tasting beer.
@@doctorfrost3 I’ve had no problem with copper when serving at parties. The only time it does is if it sits overnight with beer in the coils.

You should never use copper to drink beer from. It will always taste metallic. Use stainless steel. It is more expensive but it won’t corrode and won’t have a taste.
I think the smell comes from reaction with the salts on your skin.
Beer should not be in contact with cooper after fermentation
Definitely cannot sit in contact with it for a prolonged time, but for serving at parties for a few hours, it’s been fine.
