Thanks. I hope it works out!

You seem like you know what you’re doing, but since you mentioned it:

If you’re worried about leaks, you can use Nylog White on the threads. It’s food rated and works for your liquid and co2 gas connections. In theory, it’s also not supposed to harden and make your fittings impossible to unscrew.

Looks like 3/8" NPT Schrader valve connection to me, but I’m not an expert on the matter.
