Looking for best faucet type

[jasonshave]

My current faucet gets gummed up over time. Particularly when I'm not using it for a few days.

Which faucets to pubs use as mine looks more like this: http://www.micromatic.com/draft-keg-beer/taps-faucets-pid-4933K.html

Actually just read about this a few minutes ago on this thread.. https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f35/stuck-taps-53527/

I'm probably going to be buying 2 Perlick Forward Sealing Faucets for my 2 tap kegerator soon.

After I broke a few tap handles I decided to go with the Perlick. I replaced my two taps and haven't looked back since.

Get the Perlicks. I have 6 of them, and they're great.

Or, wait for the new Ventmatic faucets to come out. The problem is you may be waiting a bit. There was a huge issue with the new ones that came out about a year ago, but the new redesigned ones should be awesome like the originals. There were some issues with the blue prints causing all sorts of issues and a huge recall. The manufacturer couldn't get their hands on the old style to inspect them. So I sent in two of mine. One was the original ventmatic and the other was the Ventmatic ultraflo version that Shirron made. The manufacturer measured every bit of them with lasers, so I have high hopes they will be awesome once again.

Hands down perlick with flow control,Never have to worry about frozen faucet or a foamy first beer.I use the flow control fairly often.

Quick question about the perlicks... Does it go in exactly the same as a standard faucet?

Yes, they install just like any other faucet.

Thanks!
