A colleague and myself have been having a discussion about the use of grease (food grade, of course, i.e. Sani-Lube) that will contact beer in the process. Places he uses it are: valve seats, valve stems, tank lid/manway gaskets, etc. I will agree that it can be useful to prevent galling, helping seal a tricky tank lid, etc., but the idea of beer in contact with grease seems troubling.
Anyone have any thoughts?
