Beer tap – setup and use
We connect the tap to the first keg when we deliver it. Here is how to switch it on, adjust it, pour and change the keg if it runs out.
Setup
- Keep the tap on a stable table and the keg beside it or on the floor below. Keep the keg in the shade and somewhere cool.
- Plug the tap into a normal socket.
- Switch on the switch at the back of the tap.
- Turn the dial on the front of the tap (0–7) to 7. That gives the coldest beer and the least foam.
- Give the tap about 10 minutes to cool before pouring the first glass.
Pouring and adjusting the foam
- To the right of the black handle there is a silver lever that controls the flow and the foam.
- At the bottom, the most beer comes out, but also the most foam.
- The higher the lever, the less foam and the easier it is to pour. All the way up, nothing comes out.
- Hold the glass at an angle under the tap, pull the black handle fully forward and straighten the glass as it fills. Close the tap fully afterwards.
- Too much foam? Move the silver lever up a little, check that the front dial is on 7 and wait about 30 seconds between glasses. The first glasses may foam more.
When the keg runs out: changing the keg
- You don't need to switch the tap off while you change the keg.
- Lift the handle on the coupler up so it closes, and remove the coupler from the empty keg.
- Fit the coupler on the new keg the same way it sat on the old one and press the handle down until it locks.
- Pour the first glass. It may foam a little.
Good to know
- The new keg needs the same coupler type as the first one. Not sure? Call +354 778 8817 before connecting.
- The tap pushes ordinary air into the keg, so the beer keeps best if the keg is finished within two days of connecting.
- At the end of the party: switch off the back switch, unplug the tap, lift the coupler handle and remove the coupler from the keg. Wipe the tap if anything has been spilled.
