Ask The Brewmasters

Hello Everyone, 

Please see attached image.  This is a threaded sample valve off of an old Velo 40X40 plate-frame.  Do any of you know the manufacturer?  Or what type of valve this is?  Scott labs does not carry the valve stem any longer.

Hi James,

I would have tried ScottLabs first too, so that's a bummer (I hope they have that gauge in stock though). That part you're pointing to looks exactly like a part Specific Mechanical supplies for their manometers (or at least to). I hope that could be a useful lead.

Cheers!

That looks like part of a Zorzini #390 sample tap. If you are looking for the o-rings and seat they are still available. I can help you offline.​
