Font or Door Taps?

Post by BeerKiller »

Hi all,I haven't posted in a long time, but have been lurking and reading plenty and now have a couple of brews kegged and ready to try.........
I just need some tapware to get it out of the cornies.

I still haven't decided on wether to go with a double font or 2 door taps.
I was looking for any advice or pros and cons on either setup.
I know a font will cost a bit more, and I will go with the 'standard' taps (whatever they are called).
I was just wondering what will give best results, i.e will a font need cooling...etc. or is it just a matter of what suits my setup the best ?

Ive had both setups and they both work equally well. Im using a two tap font on top of a chest freezer at the moment. Its not a flooded font but I havent had any troubles with it.

My only recommendation it to use snaplock couplers on your taps so that you can remove them from either the fridge door or font to give them a soak in cleaner once a fortnight or so.

Keg/line cleaner. I just got mine from Grain and Grape, it's very similar to drain cleaner.
