CLEANING THE BEER LINES - 2 |
||
| 10 Steps to Clean the Lines | ||
|
Mix brewery-approved cleaner in a bucket of Water according to
manufacturer’s direction. |
 |
 |
| Disconnect tap from barrel and tubing. Remove beer faucet and take apart. |
 |
 |
| Put tap and faucet parts in bucket to soak. |  |
 |
| Put on faucet-cleaning attachment. Connect coupling to cleaning attachment. |
 |
 |
| Pump solution from bucket through line (with bucket-type pump) until it starts to flow out the beer line. Continue to pump the cleaning solution through the system for several minutes to thoroughly clean the beer lines. |  |
 |
| While you’re waiting, scrub tap and beer faucet parts with brush – inside and out. |  |
 |
| Put the small sponge in the line at the faucet-cleaning attachment. |  |
 |
| Reconnect coupling and pump sponge through beer line.
This cleans out sediment. For perfect cleaning, run sponge through again. |
 |
 |
| Assemble rinsed faucet parts and connect faucet. Fill
bucket with fresh, cool water. Connect pump hose and beer line using twin male coupling. Pump the fresh water through the beer line system to remove cleaning solution. |

 |
| When crystal clear water comes through, you’re ready to retap barrel. Draw the water from the beer line. Now you’re ready to serve beer. |  |
