Subject: Best place to buy parts for corny kegs?
|
Hi,
I've got a couple of used corny kegs that need replacement parts (new
poppits and gaskets) and was hoping someone could recommend a supplier.
I just purchased two poppits from my LHBS at the outrageous price of
$11 EACH, but I really needed them (ok, I'm just impatient and wanted
to get the newest batch into a keg asap). I like to frequent my local
shop and support it with my purchases because I realize I'm buying more
than just product - I'm getting convenience, immediate delivery, and
the ability to tap into his knowledge. However, I don't like getting
totally screwed on what should be a rather inexpensive item; I'll
continue to buy the reasonably priced and reasonably overpriced items
from the store, but I'll go elsewhere for the insanely overpriced
items.
Thanks,
Scott P.
Brewing in Boise, Idaho

rcbequip has good prices, but slow delivery. My last purchase came
pretty quickly, but I've had one delayed. Expect very little to no
communication also. But otherwise, good prices.

Morebeer.com is a lot cheaper than that. $2.70 max.(Keg Parts)
My LHBS has them for under $3. (Cellar Homebrew in Seattle).

Most of the usual suspects have parts for a decent price
(e.g., $2-$3 for a poppet). Williams Brewing, Northern Brewer,
Grape and Granary, etc.
