What's the best way to clean taps before/after taking samples from the fermentor?

[Elysium]

I am wondering if it is really necessary to clean/sanitize taps after the primary fermentation is through and I take samples out of the fermentor through it for gravity measurements?
If yes, what is the most convinient/best way?

Always have a bottle of star-san around. You don't really need to worry about pulling samples, but go ahead and give it a spritz for piece of mind.
