DraftBuddy vs KegCalc

Easily calculate the correct pressure you need for your beer draft system.

A better pour starts with a balanced setup. KegCalc helps you choose beer-serving targets, calculate CO₂ regulator pressure, and estimate a starting beer-line length for your home kegerator. DIAL IN YOUR DRAFT • Calculate pressure from beer temperature, target carbonation, and elevation above sea level. • Estimate beer-line length using tubing resistance, faucet rise, and a faucet pressure. • Adjust your setup and see results update immediately. • Keep your last calculator setup saved on your device. START WITH YOUR BEER Browse and search 128 beer styles, review suggested temperature and carbonation ranges, and send your chosen targets straight to the calculator. Use the brewer’s targets when available. USE YOUR PREFERRED UNITS Switch between Fahrenheit and Celsius, PSI, bar and kPa, and feet/inches or centimeters. Changing display units preserves your physical inputs. CALCULATE OFFLINE The calculator and beer-style reference work without an internet connection. No account is required. KegCalc contains no analytics or advertising SDKs. KEEP LEARNING Open kegcalc.com in your browser for kegerator lessons, setup and troubleshooting guides, equipment comparisons, fitting guidance, and the equations behind the calculator. Website resources require an internet connection and may include affiliate links. The pressure and line estimates are starting points for home CO₂ draft systems. Actual tubing and flow vary. Allow the beer to reach serving temperature, start with extra tubing, and fine-tune gradually. Not intended for nitrogen blends or long-draw systems.
