First off, thanks to everyone for the great info on my favorite subject. I'm a long time lurker, first time poster.

Just have a quick question: I'm doing a good cleaning on my kegerator, and I wanted to know if I should use the keg-lube stuff when assembling the faucet. If so, where?
My guess would be on all rubber parts. Should I also put it on the end of the brass thingy at the other end of the tap handle to reduce wear? (I know, nice technical terms, huh)

Thanks in advance,
Lance

As for the question on everbody's mind, I am kegging an APA from Golden Valley Brewing Co (local guys). The batch just went to their taps on Friday, and I'm picking up my keg today. Thanks again.

yep, all the rubber seals... I don't have an opinion on the "knob lever", but one tube of keg lube is a lifetime supply, so go wild...

(I got the technical term from Rapids Wholesale (http://buyrapids.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=110018SS&Category_Code=BEFCT), they actually carry the individual parts if anyone wants to rebuild a tap...)
