Hi,
Had several brews that slightly leaked between the barrel and the rubber seal of king keg bottom tap barrels (I've got 4)
Tried several kinds of tap, including lever taps, sparkler taps and the standard barrel tap.
I've always used a smear a Vaseline, been clean etc.
Sometimes they seal and sometimes they don't . Like I say, not been a huge leak, just the odd drip.. So annoying.
I'm thinking of doing the tap up as normal, then putting a very small bead of silicon sealant (aquaria, the same stuff that's used on fish tanks) on the outside.
Anyone have any thoughts on if this is a good idea or not?
Cheers
