Preparation

Preparing the Beer Keg

1. Buy a standard 5 litre party keg of your choice.

CAUTION:

If the keg has been shaken (transport, etc.), the beer

must be allowed to stand for a sufcient time prior to

use.

2. Cool the 5 litre party keg prior to use. The optimal

drinking temperature is about 6 - 8 °C. The beer from

a warmer keg is less refreshing. Heavy foaming can

also result. To cool the keg in the beer dispenser, it is

recommended to place it in the connected dispenser

the day before. At a keg temperature of about 23 °C, it

is recommended to wait 16 hours before pulling the rst

glasses of beer.

NOTE:

Use your domestic refrigerator to pre-cool the keg. This

allows the cooling to process to be accelerated. Storing

the 5 litre party keg in a refrigerator offers the advan-

tage of always having a second keg ready to use.

CAUTION:

Never cool the party keg in a freezer as it can burst.

Shock cooling can impair the quality of beer.

3. The commercially available 5-liter party kegs are

equipped with different stoppers. Depending on the stop-

per the party keg is provided with, it may be necessary to

remove the keg stopper and insert one of the universal

adapters. The various stoppers are described below.

CAUTION:

• Before removing the stopper, always rst vent the

keg as stated on the keg and allow to stand for a

sufcient period so that the foam does not escape

from the vent opening.

• Also observe the instructions on the respective keg

regarding the handling of the different stoppers.

• Heineken kegs are described in a separate chapter.

You may use kegs with the following stoppers in this

appliance:

The Rubber Stopper

Rubber stoppers do not require the

use of any tools or adapters. Kegs

with rubber stopper can simply

be pierced with the keg tap as

described in the chapter “Piercing

the Beer Keg”.

The Combination Stopper

The combination stopper is

equipped with a red stopper lid. No

tools or adapters are required. See

the adjacent gure. When buying

a keg with this cover, make sure it is provided with the

sealing member that has been circled in the middle.

For the combination stopper, you rst need to vent the

keg and then remove the stopper lid with a powerful jerk.

You may then pierce the keg as described in chapter

“Piercing the Beer Keg”.

The Aerator Stopper

The aerator stopper is equipped

with a black stopper lid. Kegs with

this type of stopper must rst be

vented, as it is necessary with the

combination stopper. After that, you

may use a tool to remove this stop-

per, if necessary.

Once the stopper has

been removed, the sup-

plied universal adapter

can be inserted into the

bunghole in the keg and

the following carried out.

CAUTION:

Do not dispose of the universal adapter after emptying

the keg, but remove and clean with warm water and

a small amount of mild washing up liquid and retain

for reuse. Remove the adapter by gripping the edge

of the rubber ring and pulling rmly towards you. Hold

the keg rmly with the other hand to ensure that it does

not tip over.

Piercing the Beer Keg

(Exception: Heineken kegs)

1. Take the dispensing unit and place it on the 5 litre beer

keg, which should have been allowed to stand for mini-

mum one hour so that no beer sprays out off the bung-

hole when the keg is tapped.

For this purpose, the tap located at the bottom of the dis-

pensing unit must be moistened with water.

2. Subsequently place it vertically on the

tap opening of the stopper / universal

adapter and push it downwards rmly

and evenly into the keg. You may need

to knock in the keg tap.

3. Attach the dispensing unit to the keg:

First, hook one side of the keg holder

at the edge of the keg. Then push the

other side of the keg holder down until it

clicks into place.

NOTE:

After tapping the keg, the beer can be used for one week.

A precondition is that the keg remains in the dispenser;

the dispenser must remain on with a full CO

cartridge

tted.
