Maintenance Tips

• Clean beverage lines every 2 weeks with a brewery-approved alkaline solution; use acid cleaner every 3rd or 4th cycle to remove minerals.

• Disassemble and sanitize faucets and couplers during each cleaning to prevent buildup of yeast or mold.

• Maintain CO₂ or blended gas pressure between 20–25 PSI, adjusting based on beverage type.

• Keep internal temperature stable at 38°F (3.3°C) for flavor and carbonation retention.

• Inspect and replace seals and O-rings regularly to prevent leaks.

• Wipe stainless surfaces with a damp cloth to preserve appearance and hygiene.

• Service the glycol system yearly, and ensure it’s in a ventilated area outside the walk-in cooler.

• Schedule annual professional maintenance to ensure performance and system longevity.
