Are seasonal taps only good for vacuum or will they work good on gravity ( with tubing to a 5gal bucket on the ground)?

I can't think of any reason they wouldn't work.

They would have to work better. I new spout that is bacteria free has to be better even without vac. The further you can keep bacteria away from the tap hole the better.

A seasonal spout is a spout you only use one year and then throw it away. Any spout could be a seasonal spout. They sell a clear straight spout that is .10c each that seem to be liked by many.

Hello Spud

Do you know where they have them for .10c? The cheapest I have found so far is .25

W.H. Supply in Sheldon Vermont sells the spouts for .11c you can look up their web site. I was told to stay away from the 1/4 inch spouts because no research has been done on them yet. I think it was the good Doctor that told me that.
