Beer Temperature

•The recommended temperature for serving chilled beer is between 34˚ and 38˚F. To maintain this temperature in average room conditions of 70˚F, set the

thermostat to "Normal."

Note: During the summertime when temperatures are warmer, we recommend that you adjust the control to a cooler setting accordingly.

•Select and maintain the proper temperature inside the refrigerator cabinet. This is necessary for maintaining the flavor freshness of beer.

•The best temperature for storing a keg is approximately 38˚F.

•Excessively cold or warm temperatures inside the refrigerator cabinet may cause a loss of flavor.

Note: Sour beer is produced as a result of secondary fermentation above 45˚F.

Tips for Cleaning Beer Glasses

For the freshest flavor, it is important to serve beer in clean glasses. For your convenience, the following tips explain how to properly clean beer glasses before serving beer.

•Do not wash beer glasses together with glasses that have contained milk or any other fatty substance.

•An excessive amount of germicide build-up will also leave a fatty film on the glasses, which may cause flat beer.

•Wash glasses thoroughly with a good detergent to remove all fatty substances (i.e. lipstick).

•Do not use soap.

•Do not wipe glasses dry. Allow glasses to air-dry by placing them on a wire rack or on corrugated metal.

•Rinse in fresh cold water just before serving beer. It is best to serve beer in a wet glass.

Normal Operating Sound You May Hear

•Boiling water, gurgling sounds or slight vibrations that are the result of the refrigerant circulating through the cooling coils.

•The thermostat control will click when it cycles on and off.

Beer Gives You

Two Simple Tests for Clean Beer Glasses

1.Wash the glasses using your usual method. Immerse the glass heel first in clean water. Empty the glass. If water droplets cling to the glass or if spots appear on the glass while pouring, the glass has not been cleaned properly. A clean glass should air-dry crystal clear.

2.Again, wash the glass using your usual method. Pour out the water and then shake salt into the wet glass. If salt does not cling to the entire inside wall of the glass and clear unsalted spots remain, the glass is not clean.
