I find it hard to believe that the worlds largest producer of beverage dispensing products are not easily available. Many brewers/ people order online once in a while and they have an online store. I dot mean to sound like a smart ass but its simple and probably cheaper then a Perlick faucet in...

No the new micromatic faucets are not forward sealing- there is a reason for that... We as brewers spend time and money on maintaining the flavor and quality the way we intended it in our beer. Forward sealing faucets allow the faucet to fill with beer, outside of the refrigeration unit, and...

Forward sealing faucets are nice for a homebrewer, which I am. However, I still prefer micromatic over Perlick. As long as your beer system is cleaned, and used on a almost daily bases there shouldn't much sticking. Just my opinion. Nothing wrong with Perlick...

Btw a sticky faucet can be fixed by a hot- wet wash rag usually- just wrap it around the faucet so it gets warm and wet...

I install draft systems from a living... Personally I prefer Micromatic over Perlick on almost all of their products and customer service. Take that for what it's worth but both companies standard beer faucets are similar whether brass or ss. Micromatic has released what will become their...

If you mean that beer would taste better warmer... I think most breweries/ brewers agree that the best temps for serving beer are between 38 and 48 degrees. Lighter American style lagers being closer to 38 while I personally like most full flavored beers to be served around 43-45. Big High...

This coming from my NUCO2 rep. It can not get old but the tank can and if the gas wasn't done correctly it can cause off flavors. This is why some beer companies installed co2 filters I between the draft systems and co2 tanks.

An Irish red ale generally is 2.2-2.6 volumes of co2 so to be to style you should have a median volume of 2.3 and to maintain that in your draft system at 36 degrees you should have a keg pressure of 8.2. In order for you to pour 2 ounces per second you'll need maybe about 2 and a half feet of...

If anything you're pressure is too low but a lot of that depends on your volumes of co2 in whichever beer you brewed. However even Budweiser, as temperamental as it is will pour half way decent at this pressure... And most craft beers require less volumes of co2 then an American lager which is...

Additionally a balances beer system pours 2 ounces per second...

The typical beer runs between 2.2 and 2.8 volumes of co2. There are exceptions- Belgian beers are generally higher while American stouts are generally lower. The general rule of thumb would be 14 psi with 5ft line to have a balanced system. Yes there are times when longer/shorter lines would be...

I install draft systems for Budweiser and 5ft of 3/16 line is perfect for beer pouring at 36-40 degrees at 12 psi. More or less and the system will begin to become unbalanced.

My first post: My California Red Ale brewed with Chinook and Cascade 37 IBU's and 6.1 abv.... Awesome brew!
