Perlick Stainless Steel Flow Control Creamer Faucet
Model: 690SS- Creamer faucet allows you to whip air into your beer when you push back on the lever, letting you create a creamy head at the end of your pour.
- Seals the faucet near the spout end of the faucet, not at the rear like most other designs
- Revolutionary Perl ball and floating O-ring design eliminates the need for a valve shaft
- Minimal faucet area is exposed making cleaning easier. Beer gets no exposure to air, so there's literally no space for mold and bacteria to grow
- Has fewer internal parts for better reliability
Conventional wisdom has no place at Perlick. That's because Perlick's drive for innovation is legendary, leaving convention for the other guys to play with. Now, wisdom in general... well, that's another story. The new Perl Stainless Faucet from Perlick is a classic example. Its revolutionary Perl ball and floating O-ring design eliminates the need for a valve shaft. Beer gets no exposure to air; there's literally no space for mold and bacteria to grow. The Perl Faucet has fewer internal parts for better reliability.
The built-in creamer feature is very easy to use with this faucet. When the beer is ready to be topped of, the user simply pulls back on the faucet handle until you have the desired amount of creamy head.
- Stainless Steel construction - won't pit or tarnish, will not taint the flavor of the beer, and is also suitable for wine
- Patented forward sealing design eliminates the need for a valve shaft exposed to beer and air
- Spout angle is more vertical allowing a more thorough draining after each pour - no horizontal area for beer to collect
- Polished interior - smooth flow, less agitation and less foaming
- Easy to clean - may be cleaned in place

Great faucet that is worth the splurge JoeAs a homebrewer and avid craft beer fan, it can be difficult keeping different styles on tap and properly dispensing with respect to the co2. This faucet solves all the usual issues associated with having multiple beers and styles on tap. In addition, the faucet allows you to fill a range of glasses from tasting size to growlers without spilling or creating beer waste and it is constructed to last.
Why I like it the most is because it allows me to use a single regulator to manage two taps. I can push 5-8lbs to two different beers and if the one taps a little fast while other taps a little slow, I can regulate the dispensing flow at the tap rather than at the regulator. For example, I currently have an IPA and a brown ale on tap. The wheat in the IPA's grain bill creates a nice head, but it also makes dispensing the beer tricky because it can form a large foam head at 5-8lbs of pressure. On the other side, the brown ale pours like a champ at 5-8lbs. The dilemma here is that on a single regulator I'd have to turn down the pressure at the bottle, which can be a pain if your bottle is housed inside your kegerator or keezer. However, these taps allow me to push the same pressure and instead regulate the dispensing rate at the tap.
In other words, what you save with these taps is the fun game of constantly opening your kegerator to adjust the pressure or reaching behind or alongside it to regulate air pressure. The person who would benefit most from these is someone who doesn't have the $ to invest in a regulator for each beer they are dispensing or someone who wants to be able to get consistent pours no matter the vessel being filled.

Excellent faucet MikeI have three of these on my kegerator, paired with Kegco SS shanks going thru the refrigerator door.
Forward sealing design is very user friendly
Clean look and very nice polish job from the factory
Flow control- I look back and wonder how I got by without it before- no extra line needed to control pour speed, nice for the first pour when the faucet is "warm," great for filling small glasses and finishing filling growlers. If you're thinking about getting this for one of the taps on your multi-tap setup, just bite the bullet and do it for all of them, you'll be happy every time there's an expected-or unexpected need to slow it down.
Threads are nice and have the standard back-off nut so you can always get your tap handle to face the right way.
Lastly, don't forget to be ready to actually turn the faucet off when you're holding a near-full growler in one hand and fading the flow with your other...gets me every so often :D
