I just got hold of some 2nd hand floryte taps and seem to work fine. can you explain what Andale told you ? cheers.
Keep in mind the context is commercial beer dispensing.
The market has moved away from the Floryte and the main reason seemed to be maintenance complexity (number of parts) and general problems with pouring - which I gather are linked matters.
I get the impression that in the commercial domain, the Florytes are no longer preferred due to the above.
Your taps, I'm sure, will be fine and always be fine - As with Yob and the others here. I think this is because they are in loving hands with people who care about their maintenance and have attention to detail.
But when the Floryte is being maintained by a $24/hour student because they were told to, then a maintenance complex tap quickly causes issues.
Hence the name FloWrong because seal 23-B-Alpha was misplaced.
It was an excellent experience seeing the store and getting a feel for the commercial domain where beer is a revenue pathway, compared to my home where beer is my main craft.
Hope that helps,........, don't go racing for refunds or anything. My info was not to stir up controversy.
Edit: My writing style on my phone is shorter because...well...tiny phones. I'm at my computer now. Happy to elaborate if you like.
