Dalex Taps

[carl_saint]

Hi all, I'm looking to purchase 4 Dalex taps to properly convert my fridge into a kegerator! Cornelius online are out of stock and expensive. I've looked around but can't find any at reasonable prices. I want 4 identical free flow or sparkler type. Anyone got these? If so where did you get them? Cheers

Paul at Barley bottom has them at £15, but if it were me with heinz sight I'd get three of these off Norm

£30 a pop aint cheap but they look sooo coool

Its my birthday soon, one off the wife, one off the kids and one off my Mum :hmm:

I have 2x Dalex flow control taps, I just did abit of waiting for 2 weeks on ebay. Picked up two identical both in really good condition and clean all round. Paid about £12 each. A1 bar stuff are good but not very cheap.

You can get lucky on ebay last week I got a brand new Stella tap for 6 pounds inc p&p and a Guinness tap with slight wear to the handle all in for 4

They are really sweet but I don't wanna spend that much tbh! May upgrade in the future tho!
Managed to get 2 from barley bottom for £10each as they had been used once! Bargain!

I have bought quite a few on eBay recently, and all have been new for under a tenner, some had flow control and some had sparklers.

If you go on eBay, and search for beer tap and price plus postage lowest first, look out for a seller that has the name bristol in it, that's who I got mine from. Postage was fast, the listing does not state they are dalex taps, but when you look at the item description and a photo it's clear that they are Dalex

You can pick the free flow ones up from him at 4.99, once I get home I will dig out some more details and update this for you



Edit: seller id is bristol_computer_recycling

erm without sounding too stupid , what is a dalex tap?

 

[Sean_Mc]

Just a type of beer tap S, for keggerator builds or other ways of serving your brew

[Swift Pint]

ah gotcha. I was trying to work out if it was a brand or style of tap. They come with the john guest disconnects on them right? so they are a plastic version of the pics you posted previously sean?

Thats it mate :thumb:

Sweet, thanks for that! He's got a couple on there!

 

[ceejam]

If you email him through eBay you might get them at the auction start price, with a decent combined rate on postage

 

[BrewDan]

You're welcome, he did mention he had a few of them, I would have bought more at those prices, but I have more taps than kegs now!!

Postage was quick, and I'm certain , as the listing states, they have all been brand new

 

[carl_saint]

Won one for £4.99. Well chuffed. Just need one more now then I can build the kegerator. Does anyone know what size hole ill need to drill to fit these? Looks to be around 20mm? Cheers

 

[Sean_Mc]

:party: Glad your sorted at a reasonable price Carl. Yeah I used my 20mm Qmax for my taps

 

[carl_saint]

On a fridge door? How easy was it? Did you use anything else?

 

[Sean_Mc]

I remove the blow molded plastic inside the door, so mine is just metal and foam

Crap pic sorry

 

[carl_saint]

So you just need the qmax to cut through the metal front. The foam can be cut with a Stanley knife? Cheers Sean

 

[carl_saint]

Just won another, so got the 4 that I wanted now!
