Trouble Shooting

A brewer may take up to several months to brew, finish, and package a keg of beer. The quality and flavor of that beer can be ruined in the few seconds it takes for a beer to travel from a keg to the faucet in a draft system that has not been properly maintained.

A clean draft beer system is the key to maintaining draft beer's freshness. Thorough cleaning it is simple yet effective. This animated videolab illustrates the "3 Step Process" utilizing an electric line cleaner on a six keg system.

Foamy draft beer can be caused by the build up of bacteria, yeast, mold, and beer stones within a beer line. Dirty beer lines lower the quality and taste of beer. It is important to regularly clean beer lines, faucets, and keg couplers to ensure the dispense of high quality beer.  

One of the most essential elements for the proper operation of any draft beer dispensing system is a consistent temperature.

The condition of the glassware and how the beer is poured is all in the hands of the serving staff. The quality of the glassware and the presentation to the customer relies completely on the knowledge and skills of the bartender.
