Cleaning and Maintaining Dispensing System
The dispensing system needs to be cleaned between
usage to prevent spoilage and/or foul taste in your beer.
Keg Coupler Cleaning
Remove the keg coupler from the keg if necessary. Close
the gas valve(s) below the regulator, remove both the red
gas line(s) and clear beer line(s) from the keg coupler(s) by
removing the plastic hose clamps (See Figure 43). Soak
and brush the keg coupler in hot water or a sanitizing solu-
tion. Rinse thoroughly with clean water. Dry all parts and
reassemble.
Hose clamps can be
released by a lateral
movement to the head.
