Cleaning the Beer System – Beer Dispensers

The entire beer system, to include the faucet, flexible beer line and tapping devices must be cleaned at regular intervals. We recommend flushing the entire system with fresh water immediately after a keg has been emptied. Once each month the system should be cleaned chemically.

It is recommended that you purchase Perlick’s Pump Type Sterilizer, as shown below. It is equipped with an adapter that attaches directly to the faucet shank in lieu of the faucet. It is also available with a slip coupling for those who choose to clean their faucets in place.

Cleaning the draft beer system will help to eliminate the buildup of the following materials:

■Bacteria:

Beer is an excellent food for bacteria (none of which is harmful). Proper conditions may begin the growth of bacteria in draft beer and on the beer faucet. By regular cleaning, we prevent this bacterial buildup and

maintain the quality of the draft beer. Greenish or

yellowish colored material on the faucet may indicate bacterial growth.

■Yeast:

All domestic draft beers contain a small amount of yeast which remains in the beer from the fermentation process. When the temperature of draft beer exceeds 50° a process of secondary fermentation may take place. The beer faucet may exhibit a white colored substance (yeast build up) if not cleaned on a regular basis.

■Beer Stone:

All beer contains calcium which is present from the grains used in the brewing process. it is an important natural material in draft systems in that as it oxidizes it coats the internal parts of the beer lines and equipment. This thin coat of beer stone helps prevent the beer from picking up strong metallic or plastic flavors as it flows through the system. The beer stone will continue to build if the system is not cleaned properly or regularly and can cause drawing problems if it begins to flake off. Beer stone is present if one can see a brownish color on the faucet or inner wall of the beer line, or tobacco- like flakes in the beer.
