If you are planning to serve European-style beers (like Heineken, Stella, or Becks to name a few) at your bar, this Micro Matic S-type keg coupler is a must. Why is it so important?
Although the S-type coupler (also known as European Sankey) looks awfully similar to the US Sankey (D-type) coupler, it does feature a thinner, longer probe. If you try to hook up a European coupler to an American beer, you will most likely get a spray. The vice versa connection won’t work at all.
With a proper S-type coupler in place, your European beer will pour nicely and always ensure the right taste.
S System Micro Matic Keg Tap Features
- Tin-nickel alloy plated body for improved durability and resistance to chemicals
- Stainless steel handle fork for added strength
- 304 stainless steel probe
- Short handle that’s ideal for the smaller diameter 1/6 kegs
