Hello. I am trying to find a food grade spigot that doesn’t have silicone and EPDM gaskets inside. I suppose the outer gaskets can be replaced, but the O-rings can be a pain. I tried searching the web and nothing came up. So, is there a spigot that uses natural rubber or any other biodegradable material for its gaskets? Thank you in advance for any response and sorry if I posted this in the wrong “sub-lemmy”.
Thank you for your very comprehensive response. I am currently trying to replace the outer silicone gaskets with cork, with mixed results, which is why I hoped that natural rubber may do the trick. I also did see that the inner O-rings were made of EPDM, so I hoped that those could be replaced with something better for the environment.
