Wubba lubba dub dub!
So the plastic heads on the keg king pumps are a bit shite:
Not so keen now on having the ball valve connected directly to the pump, opening/closing the valve was what loosened the fitting, tightening up caused it to break.
Options:
[*]Don't use a ball valve on the pump outlet. Controlling flow shouldn't be an issue as I'll have a ball valve on the herms coil inlet.
Anything else to consider?
Stupid pumps.

Options:
- Buy a better pump with a SS head
Pros: Shiny. More durable. - Cons: Exy. ($70 vs $200+)
[*]Don't use a ball valve on the pump outlet. Controlling flow shouldn't be an issue as I'll have a ball valve on the herms coil inlet.
- Pros: Cheap. Pumps well enough.
- Cons: Plastic head breaks under strain.
