Then I had extra caps and I just unscrewed the cap, swapped the jug and screwed the cap with the tubing attached to the next jug.
At that time I had 70 taps and I ran tubing for 2-3 taps into a jug. The jugs were free at restaurants but I had to clean the oil out that was left in. I think my wife didn't need to buy cooking oil for about 2-3 years back then.
Probably cut down on defoamer usage as well!
