hi Will

Thanks for that my searches did not throw up anything (guess I was not searching for the right terms). I already have a,tower to attach the tap to so just need the the,tap itself.

Norm on ebay has some nice chrome ones at the moment.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/CORNELIUS-TYPE-CHROME-TAP-/321062310524?pt=Home_Brew&hash=item4ac0ce127c&_uhb=1 he sent me one. I havent used it yet but seems ok. He'll send it here if you ask. I have his email address if you want it. I got a full connection kit so no messing ordering extra fittings.

Just to be clear:

A stout ( aka G. ) tap has two little extras - a plastic widget (flow straightner ??)  and a micro perforated plate above it. These sit in the black plastic nozzle and are responsible for the G. head

Yup the one of those i got from norm had all that, i checked before i ordered

[rukkus]

No worries, yea was a great price. I'm all out of brew atm so havent tested it yet

[Will_D]

Just ordered one of those to see what it's like. If it's as good as it looks I'll sell my other taps. Didn't work out too bad either, about €45 delivered via Parcel Motel.

Thanks for the heads up, rukkus!

Are you hoping to get a stout tap?

AFIK: This is NOT a stout tap!!!

[rukkus]

The one i have seems to be. What makes you think it isnt? Mine has a restrictor disc in it

[rukkus]

You sure did

Bit confused about this not being a stout tap...? It seems the same as the guinness tap i bought from someone  :

[rukkus]

Here is the inside of the spout on mine. I did check before I ordered so maybe he added it after I requested but I doubt it

Hi Tube and Rukkus,

Sorry I am a tad confused, are either of you able to confirm whether the tap referenced on the thread by Rukkus is actually a stout tap?
