I was reading a post about some old Perlick faucets that someone was rebuilding and it got me to thinking. I have 3 or 4, if not more, old Taprite faucets that I was thinking of rebuilding in the hopes of having a multi tap system at some point. My question is this. Can I just take the O rings and washers off, bring them to my local hardware store and buy off the shelf? Or since they come in contact with the beer, do they need to be some sort of special material? I know they are old and probably easier to buy new ones that are better sealing and all that, but since I have them I wanted to give them a go. I can rebuild one, put it on my keg to try out and see what happens. Anyway, any input on this is most appreciate.
