Cheapish Keg taps

[bigbud78]

Anyone used these taps ? Any reviews ?

Would love some of the more expensive taps but just cant afford 3 of them and I really want matching :mrgreen:

I have 2x of those on my fridge. The flow control lever makes a huge difference in the amount of foam/head dispensed.

I get decent pints using the flow lever and have not used any reducers or excess tubing from the keg. I also - only last night, found that if you push the lever forward it will make a froth to create a head.

I also have two. One bought from a UK homebrew supply store and the other from a 'UK-based' wholesaler on eBay. I was a bit concerned about the ebay purchase, but came quickly and is exactly the same as the first one but about half the price. The only issue with them is I've not been able to find longer shanks which will fit these.

What's the max thickness you can clamp do you know?

Just had a quick measure. It's about 25mm, certainly not much more.

Cheaper from China but theres the risk of customs, looks good for the money :)

Good to know its available. I just took a hole saw half way through my collar, wide enough foe access to tighten everything up. Makes the inside of the keezer look a bit cleaner too and less shank to get in the way when I'm lifting full kegs in.

True, I'll Cut the holes first and decide after :) Thanks for you help ! :thumb:
