This is a shameless endorsement of Perlick faucets. I wish I had pictures to go along with it.
I've had my kegerator for about 18 months I guess, and I'm not the best at cleaning faucets. I spray some Starsan up in them every now and then and wipe them out with a q-tip.
But, I decided to break them all down today, and oh wow, there was plenty of stuff to clean up. Except for the one Perlick faucet I have, which was spotless all the way through.
Having seen that, I've committed myself to a) take the faucets apart more regularly, and b) replace all of them with Perlicks as funds become available.
Anybody have a similar experience.

Some people say the glass is half empty.
Some say it's half full.
I just want to know who's drinking my damn beer!

Re: Perlick faucets
The forward sealing design seals the faucet near the spout end of the faucet and that makes it worth the money. IMOMichael Erwin wrote:This is a shameless endorsement of Perlick faucets. I wish I had pictures to go along with it.

Re: Perlick faucets
They rock for sure. They don't get all sticky inside like the cheap ones. I've got three on my tap tower and they are always reliable even after ignoring them for a long time. No bug trouble either.

Re: Perlick faucets
I don't know if it is any deal or not, but I've sourced a place for all stainless Perlick faucets for $23.25 each if 25 are purchased. Normally they're 29.99 each. Does anyone else know of a better price?
You gonna buy one, or be one?
.....I'm gonna be one!
