Yeah, StarSan is not going to remove beer stone. Sounds like that's your problem. I use this pump with an adapter I got from AIH to hook up to a quick disconnect

I have the KC2000 Twin model, and I found that around the 3-5 setting is around 38° with the compressor running and 42° standing(Air Temp). I would recommend one of these to help get the temperature just about right. You will need to record a couple of measurements to get the Air Temp and then with a glass of water and a thermometer to get the liquid temp. Ideally you want the liquid temp at around 40° like u/dwkeith mentioned, but keeping it too close to freezing can mess with the carbonation. Also don't forget to clean out the lines every 2 weeks to ensure that there is no buildup of mold or yeasts. I use this cleaning kit to keep the lines, fittings and spouts clean and moving fluidly.
I use this. It's a little pricey considering that it's just a weed sprayer adapted to a beer line coupler (you could figure this out yourself for cheap), but it makes everything simple. The amount of cleaner needed per treatment is about a shot-glass full, so that cleaner lasts a long time.
And I usually clean after every keg, but not always. Really as long as your home environment is clean and your beer lines are running (not dormant for weeks), you could clean pretty sporadically if you really wanted to, but I prefer to clean them.
It's not really time consuming. Just hook this thing up in between a keg change. Run a jug with cleaner through it, then run a jug of clean water through it, then tap the next keg.
