Triple tap cobra fonts

[mfroes]

Hi guys,
Have anyone bought a cobra font in australia? I see that there is a few disparities from the pictures i have found on the internet.
i see a few narrow ones and the wide ones. Would anyone know the difference?
or that might be just in my perception of the photo ?
I was looking for a wide one and cant seem to find for sure.

Have anyone bought from any australian distributor?
have anyone been cooling it with cold water+pump ?
do anyone have an idea of how to prevent it from rusting ? being just plated and all.

Should i get one of this or just go with a regular tower font and get one used when it appears cheap ?


Thanks in advance,
Marcelo


i found a few links which i will post below , but a few of them (like the keg-king one) seems to be too narrow.

I bought a 4 tap cobra from cheeky peak. They are good to deal with.

Did you just buy through the internet ? It seems a bit narrow. Specially to 4 taps.
Where did you get those rototap? Are they flow control? Need to check cheeky peak

It has metal pipes that run from each tap to the base which connect to my beer live with John guest fittings. It also has a line for glycol but I’ve never connected it or needed to. Get a bit of foam on the first pour but I can live with that!

I got the taps a few years ago from the US. A mate was over there for work and picked them up for me. They are flow control and that helps with the first pour and managing different beers. I think they’re great. Easy to clean too!

With the font I did need to buy shanks and fittings etc but cheeky peak were great in helping me piece it all together!

Yeah, I've been trying to find some over here with no luck. They look great .
Thanks for the help, will try contacting them.

You'll have to show the entire set up. Hehe. Is it a stainless bar/table? Did you put in the kitchen ?

Nah, it’s a 2 door grand deluxe from keg king. Looks the goods and fits 4 cornies in one side with room on the other side for food and drinks.

It’s a bit noisy for an inside unit but looks a shitload better than my last keezer!

Hehe, I know what you mean. That's usually the issue with these set-ups to keep inside.
They are well and good for the backyard deck thou.

Well, ifyou ever want to get rid of one of those Faucet beauties let me know.
