Are you experiencing problems with your pour? Want to get just the right amount of head on your beer? Use the Perlick Flow Control Faucet. This Perlick stainless-steel beer faucet is extremely useful for any beer enthusiast, including homebrewers and anyone pouring beer at a home or commercial bar.

Simple to use, the Perlick 650SS and Perlick 690SS can be attached to any standard North American draft beer tower that is pouring out using CO2 carbonation.

How to Adjust a Perlick Flow Control Faucet
Step 1: When pouring the first beer from a new keg, start with the flow control lever closed, or all the way forward toward faucet.
Step 2: Open, or adjust the lever upwards, until you reach the desired pour speed for your beer.
Step 3: Once you’ve achieved the perfect amount of head without excess foam, leave the flow control lever as is for great pours for the remainder of the keg.
