Im in the final stages of contructing my keezer from a used chest freezer. I have the holes drill and collar installed for 4 taps.
Originaly I had planned on going with 3 stainless perlicks and one stout faucet. However, after staining the collar red mahogany and painting the keezer black I decide it might look better with brass fittings.
My question is will brass eventually give me any off flavors in the beer? Do they make brass coated or colored shanks? I like the look of brass but would go with stainless steel if the funtionalty is overall better in the long run. Any advice would be helpful and welcomed. Thanks!
