Standard faucets or Perlick

inspector13 · Mar 10, 2010

I am going down to Keg Connection tomorrow to buy a keg setup and was wondering...is the upgrade from the standard chrome faucet to a 525SS Perlick worth the money? Why or Why not? I don't mind spending the $$$ but not need to blow it. There are other beer related things I could spend money on. AHS is on the way home!

Regular faucets stick if you don't pour on them every day or two. It's so bad sometime you can almost break the tap handle trying to open the faucet. Perlicks won't stick. They're totally worth it.

Perlicks. They're what? $15 more or so? Totally worth it. I have three perlicks, and never once had a sticking faucet, or any other problems.

Perlicks FTW!

Agreed, Perlick's all the way (or ventmatic if you can find them).

Made the trip to the Keg Connection today. Got the Perlicks and my system with 4 kegs. Also stopped by Austin Homebrew and picked up ingredients for two batches. That is a great day!!!!!!

Thanks. We're just like your wife, except with the priority of BEER!

I'm so glad you got to go to two of my favorite vendors today! I'm jealous. Make sure you post picutres of the set up when it's done.

I will post pictures. It may take a little time. Looking for a deal on a freezer.

So you are the guy who kept them from answering the phone all day?

inspector13 · Mar 11, 2010

Well, maybe for a little while. I think you will understand if you go down there. I didn't get them to answer the phone till 10:30.

Do you work at the HD in Harker Heights?

quickerNu · Mar 13, 2010

Yes, I am the parts manager there. The dude in the Fedora. Have we met? I was a salesman at the Temple store for 3 years.
