Perlick Stainless Faucet And Beer Shank

[peterl1981]

Hi guys,
Just wanting to buy new beer taps and was looking at getting 525SS Stainless Faucet and Beer Shank setup
Has anyone got them and where is the best place to get them ????

 

[Mike L'Itorus]

did you want a faucet, or a tap?

Faucets come from the US. Taps are available pretty much anywhere else.

Have a read of this thread. These are not stainless, but flow control perlicks and they rock!

I have a set of them, I sourced from the us in an attemp to save money.

Mine (525ss) were from:
http://www.farmhousebrewingsupply.com/scri...p?idproduct=144

But it was quite some time ago, can't recall the details but they did arrive in reasonable time as advertised.

Does anyone have a wrench for tightening them? Like this

I find thumb tight is OK but they can slip if twisted, any aussie sources for a 'faucet wrench' (spanner wrench to fit standard shanks/taps)

Got mine from here: http://www.kegkits.com/Merchant2/merchant....;Category_Code=
Shared the postage/discount with someone else local.

Also check here: http://www.chicompany.net/

Yep, I got one with my taps, seems to work fine, but I don't take them apart much at all.

Picked mine up from "The Beer Tap Store" on ebay.
Grouping together with other gear will obviously save you some $$ on postage.

Great tap...good choice!!

i used chi company. Was very happy with the service and price.

 

[Dazza88]

I have found chi company and farmhouse brewing supply to be the cheapest when you factor in shipping. They are pretty slow on the delivery.
