Buy Recently Released Nukatap Mini Faucets (have experience multiple sellouts) + Get a FREEBIE

The Nukatap Mini is the first small beer faucet with big faucet features, like forward sealing, an optional self closing spring, laminar flow to minimize foaming, and a removable stainless spout. It also has new innovations like integrated over molded Santoprene® seals, which will last the life of the faucet without replacement. The faucet body is molded from POK plastic which can withstand autoclave temperatures, and the over molded seals can withstand the harshest cleaning chemicals. Over molded seals get rid of O rings, eliminating the places behind O rings where crud and bacteria can hide.The Nukatap Mini is the first small beer faucet with big faucet features, like forward sealing, an optional self closing spring, laminar flow to minimize foaming, and a removable stainless spout. It also has new innovations like integrated over molded Santoprene® seals, which will last the life of the faucet without replacement. The faucet body is molded from POK plastic which can withstand autoclave temperatures, and the over molded seals can withstand the harshest cleaning chemicals. Over molded seals get rid of O rings, eliminating the places behind O rings where crud and bacteria can hide.

Due to it being made of POK plastic with a POK molded shuttle, the first pour from a Nukatap Mini will have less foam than from a conventional metal faucet due to the fact that cold beer cools down POK plastic faster than it does metal. The POK plastic also insulates better than brass or stainless, a helpful feature between pours.

The Mini debuts a new shank system which eliminates the need to drill a 7/8” hole in your cooler or refrigerator door. The new Nukatap Mini Shanks (available for 8mm and 6.5mm Evabarrier tubing) use EvaBarrier tubing to draw the beer right to the tap, and are secured with three screws to the outside, preventing the shank from rotating, a common problem with metal shanks and coolers.

Retailers have struggled to keep Nukatap Mini in stock. They’ve gone in and out of stock sometimes for months at a time. As of this update nearly all options and accessories are in stock at William’s Brewing

  • CO2 levels – help spot CO2 leaks in your kegerator. See below

Using a layer of defense to detect against kegerator CO2 leaks…

Placing a CO2 Monitor with alarm inside of your kegerator can serve as another line of defense to protect against co2 leaks and loss. CO2 should not be building up in your kegerator. A CO2 monitor with alarm can alert you of this condition.

This is not a replacement for checking for CO2 leaks using traditional methods, rather a another layer that could save you a trip to swap out a CO2 tank.

More Info

From the product description, check product page for current description, price and availability:

Are you looking for something more than the Series X line of Kegerators? Our Stainless Grand Deluxe 3 models are commercial grade, and perfect for commercial use or your ultimate man cave. This 60″ long model can hold 3 full sized 15.5 gallon kegs, and up to twelve 5 gallon Corny style kegs. It features a built in stainless drip tray with drain, and hole for one optional 4 faucet T tower.

• Liftgate truck delivery cost included to the lower 48 states!

• 304 stainless steel countertops with thick insulating core foam

• Complete stainless finish on sides and back

• Two double glazed safety glass doors with locks and keys included

• Exterior LED light switch to show off your products

• Built in countersunk stainless drip tray system with drain installed to bottom of unit

• 2 rubberised steel wire racks that are removeable and adjustable

• 4 heavy duty caster wheels (not fitted, adjustable feet are installed on arrival)

• Rated to operate in ambient temperatures up to 86° F.

• Switchable Digital Centigrade/Fahrenheit thermostat with adjustable differential

• Thermostat can be programmed to have a wide temperature range so you can use this as a wine celler or fermentation chamber

• Two holes filled with foam on the right side can be drilled out for gas in hoses

• Integral tower cooling fan with cooling hose to route up into your beer tower

• One year warranty

Dimensions and Specifications:

External: 59″ (L) x 28″ (W) x 36″ (H) [without included 4″ caster wheels]

Internal: 45.5″ (L) x 21.5″ (D) x 30.5″ (H)

Power Consumption: 2.8 amps at 110 volts

Weight: 284 lbs. shipping weight, 251 lbs. unboxed

Please Read:

1. You may want to adjust the differential of the included Dixell XR03CX controller. The differential is the amount of time the control waits after cooling to the target temperature before restarting the compressor. A higher differential gives you a wider temperature range and less wear on the compressor, while a lower differential makes for a very narrow temperature with more wear on the compressor. This is done by programming the temperature control on the front panel. This commercial grade control is very versatile and will let you fine tune your refrigerator to your specifications, but not very intuitive. Click here for a manual.

2. This is a commercial grade appliance with a high level of cooling performance. The powerful fans in this unit are louder than the smaller Series X Kegerators

3. These commercial grade fridges have been handcrafted and may have some light cosmetic scratches or dings/dents which is normal

4. This unit is free standing and should not be built in to a countertop to prevent overheating.

5. This unit does not have a plug for the beer tower. You will need to purchase a beer tower to plug the top tower hole. All our Nukatap towers will fit.

6. This unit ships by truck freight on a pallet and weighs 284 lbs palletized, 251 lbs when unboxed. The trucker will lower it out of the truck, but it is your responsibility to move it to its final location.

Reminder: Time to Clean Beer Lines + Limited Time DEAL

About this time every month we post a reminder to clean beer lines. This helps if you clean monthly or everything other month.

Clean kegerator lines are a key part of serving delicious beer. Bacteria and mineral build in lines can cause off flavors, quick loss of head, under-carbonated beer due to rapid co2 loss and lack of legs forming on the inside of your beer glass.

Limited Time Deal on Ball Lock Cleaning Jumpers:

Helps you clean multiple lines at the same time…

Valuebrew is offering a pack of two jumpers and 25 replacement o-rings for $32.97. Coupon code JUMP discounts the combo by a whopping 32%.

Double Jumper Special! < note that you must use this link along with coupon code JUMP to get the deal, the standard product will not get you the discount

Valuebrew’s jumper is unique because of the custom color, food grade o-rings and because … it works with both liquid and ball lock jumpers.

How Often Should You Clean Lines?

The Draught Quality Beer Manual says… every two weeks.

That recommendation is for a commercial operation.  What about homebrewers?  We serve far fewer beer on our kegerators, but on the other hand, we can have been on tap and in lines 24 hours a day and 7 days a week.  Considering all of this, my recommendation is every 1 to 2 months.

FLOW CONTROL Stainless Steel Forward Sealing Faucet – $36.19 + free shipping

Forward Sealing Beer Faucet Flow Control Stainless Steel Craft Beer Tap for Homebrew Beer

Forward Sealing Beer Faucet Flow Control Stainless Steel Craft Beer Tap for Homebrew Beer

Highlighted Features
  • Forward sealing beer faucet with flow control to reduce foam

  • Handle thread: 3/8"-16UNC
  • Body thread: 1 1/8" - 18

Flow control faucets feature a built in flow compensator that allows you to adjust the resistance your faucet is exerting.  That means less tubing and potentially less foaming and wasted beer. The compensation feature also makes it easier to serve higher carbonation beers as you can set the faucet to provide resistance to offset the increased pressure needed to store and serve these beers at higher pressures.  Instead of replacing your beer line with ever increasing lengths of tubing, you simply turn a knob to increase resistance.

Hands on Review: Kegland DuoTight Fittings & EVABarrier Tubing + Limited Time FREEBIE

Updated: October 3, 2024

Kegland’s DuoTight Fittings are designed to work with EVABarrier Double Wall Tubing.  They offer quick, reliable connections, easy implementation, a variety of fitting options and feature amazing versatility.  They’re also, generally speaking, very well priced.  DuoTights are push to connect fittings and require no tubing clamps.

+ Limited Time Deal… FREEBIE (w/qualifying order)…

Wort Whipper Stir Plate

Kegland Wort Whipper Stir Plate via William’s Brewing

More Info

From the product description, check product page for current description, price and availability:

The compact Wort Whipper from KegLand is only 1.1″ thick, and 4.75″ wide. Although this unit says it can stir up to 5 liters, we have tested it and found it is only good for up to 2000ml of wort in a 3000ml Erlemeyer Flask. Still, it is an excellent value for $40.00.

This unit has variable speed, and it is best for yeast growth to set the speed as low as possible so the yeast is suspended without it looking like a tornado. A magnetic stir bar is included, although the pictured 3000ml Erlenmeyer Flask is not included.

 

  • For a limited time William’s Brewing is throwing in a FREE Wort Whipper when you place an order of $109 or more and use coupon code Q30 at checkout.
  • No need to add the Wort Whipper to your cart, it will be automatically added when you use the coupon with a qualifying order at checkout.
  • Shipping is free or reasonably priced flat rate to addresses in the lower 48 states depending on your order size for most items.

KegLand Wort Whipper Stir Plate – remember promo code Q30 with an order of $109 or more

This means that now is a great time to upgrade to DuoTights!

The Eva Dry E-333 contains a desiccant material that absorbs moisture.  As this material absorbs moisture it also changes color.  Dark blue means it’s dry and pink means it’s becoming saturated.  The great thing about the Eva-Dry is that the desiccant material is reusable.  The unit contains a built in heater that drives off built up moisture.  When it becomes saturated, plug it in overnight and it’s ready to go again the next day.

I use the larger E-500 in my kegerator.  Check out my extensive Hands on Review of the E-500 including condensation trials.
