If you want to use the absolute best style of valve available to homebrewers, the butterfly valve is the clear choice. Brewers love butterfly valves because they are far and away the most sanitary option. Regular ball valves can trap small amounts of wort inside them, which inevitably leads to an infection that can sour your beer. That's why we always recommend breaking down your ball valves and cleaning them between uses. Butterfly valve have virtually nowhere for contaminants to hide and are easily cleaned in place. They also can be taken apart for a deeper cleaning if desired, although it's rarely necessary.
