Commercial 1/6 Barrel Keg?

[gwcr]

Have any of you used a commercial 1/6 barrel keg in your setup? My pipeline needs some time to grow and mature, so I'm considering getting a 1/6 keg of something to fill in the gap. Trying to figure out the best way to do the connections for the Sanke "D" tap. Would be interested to hear what anyone has done as far as the hookups go. Thanks!

Wish I could help out but I've got no experience.
I'm pretty sure you can get sanke to ball lock conversion kits if that's what you're looking for.

I've seen two ways to do it. Putting the ball lock posts on the Sanke tap, or having the MFL connections to use with the swivel nuts. Not sure which one would be better.

Same here but again, I have no personal experience and don't want to send you in the wrong direction. Do you have a LHBS who might be able to help with this? Or, give one of the online keg companies a call. Most of those guys are pretty nice.

I have a 1/2 barrel com. keg that I do fill with a big batch at times, I have the Sanke and the ball lock posts, my problem is when it is in the Kegerator the liquid line is way tight to the top with the ball lock connected. I'm thinking the MFL and swivel may be the way to go.

I went with MFL and swivels on mine, works great. I just unscrew my ball lock posts and fit them to the Sanke tap.

In fact Beverage Elements just sent an email with their sales and info on the new website and found the following:
