hi all.i just read the post about your tap issues.Now i had 3 replacement taps sent to me,although brewart have great costumer service.I learnt the best way to avoid damage to the taps was not to pull it apart.i wash it out open then close ,then when sterilizing droid i flush through it several times.I do oil the outside rubbers when using but i havent had a problem since..i hope this does help anyone.dont give up brewart..
