I’m getting a Stella cider keg for my kegerator tomorrow, and I usually have miller lite in it, so looking for proper psi setting I should set it to for the Stella cider. And also if there is a proper tubing length I should have for it as well. Any advice or input will help, thanks.
 
You can carbonate cider to the same level as beer. I use 2.4-2.5 vols, about 12 psi at 40°F. I'm not sure about Stella but most commercial ciders are higher than beer, like 3 vols instead of 2.5, so if you want that level you're looking at 18 psi at 40°.

Don't worry about line length, cider doesn't foam much.
