Igloo cool boxes tap?

[oldjiver]

Its hard to tell from the adverts for the Igloo 400 cool boxes (the yellow and red round ones) if they have a proper tap? Looks a bit like a push button one. Does anyone know if it is a proper tap, and if it isnt can it be easily replaced without hacking anything about.

When looking at a bigger mash tun build i browsed a few US builds using the igloo round coolers, and they all replaced the tap.

it may not hold a seal at mash temps, and if you want to use a braid or manifold filter making an inside seal to it may prove tricky? but a false bottom should work with the existing tap.

the taps can be replaced quite easily with a more robust metal tap
