I want to get into kegging but I want a setup that could be easily broken down for cleaning and moving purposes. A lower startup cost would be nice too.
So instead of building a keezer or kegarator with standard metal taps drilled in, I had the idea of using a picnic tap that just stays inside of the refrigerator.
My question is then: Does anyone notice any sort of disadvantage that a plastic picnic tap has over your standard metal tap (oxidation, fragile, frustrating to disassemble, etc.)?
I intend on buying a chest freezer and a complete CO2 setup, I just don't want to drill holes, install shanks, and all the other logistics that come with standard taps.
