Search 'Cornelius keg' on youtube and there's all sorts of stuff.
Click on 'Equipment' above, then dispensing and there's a bit of info.

As for pressures, it's personal taste. I use 40psi for cider as my wife likes it fizzy (i don't drink the stuff myself) but you need some sort of flow control to stop froth issues. For beer i dispense at around 2 psi.
Can't help with the wine gas :unsure:
