    Just bought Perlick 525SS Faucet Shank Combo w/ Knob $25ea

    Honestly, I would keep bugging them if I were you. I honestly don't think they are backordered, I think they are just trying to stop the bleeding of a pricing error. If they were just backordered, the price and "add to cart" button wouldn't be gone from the webpage. You'd think it would...

    Just bought Perlick 525SS Faucet Shank Combo w/ Knob $25ea

    8/16. They shipped 8/18, way before it got all this attention and the orders started pouring in. I ordered the day before jww9618 but he lives a lot closer so he got his first. I googled around researching taps at home on the iPad for like 2 hours one night and just happened to stumble upon...

    My keezer build

    Yep, two cornies on the floor with a 20oz soda bottle of water that my temp probe is in. 3rd corny, co2 tank and a muffin fan on the hump. Hmm, it would be close putting a better bottle on the hump. A quick google tells me that a 6 gallon better bottle is 20 inches tall so height would be...

    Type of glass to drink from

    I use pint, stein, snifters and the occasional mason jar.

    Exactly. Forget the shanks. $25 for the faucet alone is a good deal so even if you turn around and buy stainless shanks after the fact it's still a good price. The chrome will be fine for me for now. Maybe I'll upgrade to stainless one at a time over the next few months or something.

    Mine are due to arrive tomorrow. I'll let you know. I'm pretty sure they are chrome.

    Just bought Perlick 525SS Faucet Shank Combo w/ Knob $25ea

    All the parts are listed as "in stock" separately...did they tell you which specific part is supposedly backordered?

    My keezer build

    It is a LCM050LC. It is full right now so it's hard to measure but measuring from the inner lip it is about 15x23 and 28 inches deep and 21 inches deep on the hump. With the 2x6 collar (and weather stripping), I got about 28 inches on the hump with collar. With hoses attached, my corny on the...

    Just bought Perlick 525SS Faucet Shank Combo w/ Knob $25ea

    When the order goes to "processed" they itemize the list and the faucet itself is the same part # as the one they are selling on their main page so I do not think these are old/leaky faucets.

    My keezer build

    Almost done! After my last pics, I kinda slacked off on the picture taking. I didn't take any pics of the staining/polyurethane process. I filled all the gaps on the inside of the collar with a caulking gun and silicone. Weatherstripping where the inner collar meets the freezer. I mounted...

    Just bought Perlick 525SS Faucet Shank Combo w/ Knob $25ea

    That's a bummer. Well, if you look up the faucets and shanks separately, they are both in stock. Obviously, the cat is out of the bag at this point so it can't hurt to call. I'd call and innocently ask what the problem is. How could the combo be backordered if both the components are in...

    Are old freezers worth using?

    I went with a new chest freezer just because I didn't want to spend all the time building the collar, etc, etc only to have a used compressor konk out on me a couple months later. Hopefully, this thing will run strong (and effciently) for me for many years to come.

    Just bought Perlick 525SS Faucet Shank Combo w/ Knob $25ea

    Ya, man...let us know. I ordered a day or two before you but you're way closer to them than I am so mine won't be here until Wednesday :mad:

    Just bought Perlick 525SS Faucet Shank Combo w/ Knob $25ea

    At some point, I assume the item is just going to disappear from their website. I'm surprised it hasn't already. Now that people here are starting to notice and orders are rolling in, that will probably happen pretty soon. Good luck with your order! Once again, when my shipment arrives this...

    Newbie kegging question

    I got my kegs in from keg connection on Friday. I had an IPA and a hefe that had been in primary for a month and was patiently waiting for the kegs to arrive. They came pressurized and looked nice and clean inside. I ran hot soapy water and then starsan through using a picnic tap, then racked in...

    Google "525ss faucet shank kit" and it's the 3rd hit. That's how I found it.

    Just bought Perlick 525SS Faucet Shank Combo w/ Knob $25ea

    Same thing happened to me when I called. Guy thought I was crazy, didn't believe me and told me if it was in my cart then "why didn't I just buy it already". I also tried to give him the link, but he was too stupid to type it in correctly, furthering his disbelief. Anyways, don't worry guys...

    Just bought Perlick 525SS Faucet Shank Combo w/ Knob $25ea

    I ordered these and they shipped them but I haven't received them yet. When I called to ask, they had no idea what I was talking about with the $25 combo. I think it's a pricing error on their site, but they seem to be honoring the orders. I'll let you know how mine look when I get them, they...
