Shit shit shit.

I have all the hardware to add two more taps, but I was holding off on the faucets so I could ask for them for Christmas.

Damn you Ventmatic!

I know morebeer stopped carrying the Ventomatics over a year ago since they were discontinued. I have 2 vents and 4 perl. They dont look bad together.

I think the Ventmatics and the Shirron-made Ventmatics were basically identical, but the Perlicks are a little different in a few respects...

I had 4 Shirrons on my kegerator with a nitro/stout faucet in the center. Eventually I got tired of having a nitro beer on all the time, so I bought a Perlick faucet, as the Ventmatics/Shirrons has disappeared. While they work just as well, they do look a little different, and more importantly, the handle threading sits at a different angle. The older faucets had a pretty much vertical threading. The Perlick's lean backward a bit, like a standard faucet, which not only throws off the symmetry of all my tap handles but prevents me from opening the chest freezer lid unless I remove that center handle. I'd love to find one more Shirron...
