When I was replacing my draught tubing, I considered options other than standard vinyl tubing.  One obstacle I encountered was that I had difficulty in finding resistance values for other tubing (silicone or "silverized").

I eventually went with vinyl, but I was wondering if anyone else has had that difficulty?

I went with this: https://www.morebeer.com/products/ultra-barrier-silver-antimicrobial-pvc-free-beer-tubing-316-id-foot.html?site_id=5

Near the bottom of the page it says that 3/16" line provides 2.2 lbs. of restriction per foot.  I assume that is just a generalization and not specific to any one type of 3/16" ID tubing though.

10 ft. of line seems to work well for me, and I usually keep my regulator at 16 psi.

Out of curiosity, did you have any of the excessive foaming on the first few pours?  I love mine but was thrown by that, until I read online that it's fairly common with that tubing. All of a sudden it poured fine and is great now.

I didn't experience the excessive foaming, but I appreciated the warning.
