CAUTIONARY NOTES
USING THE BEERTENDER SYSTEM
®
To obtain draft beer of optimal quality you should keep two basic factors in mind, the
temperature of the beer and hygienic conditions.
1. Pre-chill the beer keg to prevent excess foam. Always use a chilled keg. If you fail to chill
the keg sufficiently too much foam will be produced when you start to pour your beer.
2. Always clean the appliance after use. Beer is a natural product that can spoil. Therefore,
you should always keep the appliance clean to maintain the quality of the beer dispensed
and prevent unpleasant odours (see "Cleaning"). The dispensing spout should be
cleaned before a new keg is installed and the drip tray and grid should be emptied after
every use - fig. 3.
„ You should also follow these other rules when using the Beertender
1. Do not cool the Beertender keg in the freezer; the Beertender
®
Moreover, freezing diminishes the quality of the beer - fig. 29.
2. Use your Beertender ® in a place where the temperature is between 12°C and 30°C.
At colder temperatures the appliance cooling system could be damaged, whereas at
warmer temperatures the system will not be able to reach the ideal beer dispensing
temperature. Store the beer keg at room temperature - fig. 4.
WARNING! To avoid overheating, keep the Beertender
fig. 30.
3. Always hold the appliance by the bottom edge when lifting it - fig. 5.
WARNING! Do not use the handle or power cord to lift the Beertender
USING THE KEG
„ Make sure that you chill the keg before using it. If you fail to chill the keg sufficiently too much
foam will be produced when you start to pour beer.
„ Please also be aware that the first glass that you pour from every new keg will contain mostly
foam. Draught beer in a bar behaves in exactly the same way!
„ The Beertender Keg "Compatible Beertender

dispensing beer. It guarantees beer of higher, long-lasting quality and compatibility with the
Beertender system that is very easy and pleasant to use.
®
before installing a keg inside the appliance, check the "best before end" date
IMPORTANT:
shown at the bottom of the keg. This date is a reliable indication if the keg has been stored at
room temperature.
„ The use of kegs "Compatible Beertender
necessitate the use of beer tubes - fig. 7. A bag of tubes is delivered with the Beertender
appliance. To receive additional tubes, contact our after-sales service or the Beertender
