    Default Aluminum tap affect flavor

    Hey guys I know that aluminum pots affect your syrups flavor but does an aluminum tap affect the syrups flavor? I know lots of the bucket taps are aluminum but does this contact with the sap affect the syrups flavor? Thanks Ryan

    Aluminum taps should not noticeably affect syrup flavor.
