2)

?

Yeast growth, or other obstructions in
faucet.

?

Worn faucet parts and worn faucet
washers.

2)

?

Clean faucet spout with a good brush daily.
Scour all internal faucet parts at least once a
week.

?

Replace worn washers as required. If faucet
does not open wide, worn parts or entire faucet
must be replaced.

3)

?

Kinks, dents, or twists in coils, or direct
draw lines: obstructions in line, near, or
behind faucet.

3)

?

Check for, and replace kinked, dented, or
twisted line from barrel to faucet.

?

Examine for frayed coupling washer behind
faucet that may cause obstruction.

4)

?

Sag, or trap in line.

4)

?

Keep all metal beer lines straight from barrel to
faucet; never permit lines to sag, as this creates
traps that may cause wild beer.

5)

?

Beer too warm at faucet;

?

Beer too warm in Coil System.

?

Beer too warm in Air Shaft System.

5)

?

Temperature at faucet must always be at least 2
degrees colder than at barrel.

?

In sweet-water refrigerated, or ice-water system,
faucet shank must always be submerged.

?

In Cold Air System, the coldest air from the
blower must first be directed to the faucet, and
then circulated back to pre-cooler.

6)

?

Hot spots in line.

6)

?

Insulate all beer lines; a long beer run must be
constantly refrigerated. Insulation helps. But
insulation is not refrigeration.

?

Keep all beer lines away from hot water pipes,
hot air ducts, and steam lines. A cold steam
pipe in the summer is a hot steam pipe in the
winter.

7)

?

Pre-Cooler, or Direct Draw Dispenser, too
warm.

7)

?

It is always summer indoors and in the
basement, therefore, maintain pre -cooler, and
direct draw dispenser temperature at 40° all year
round. If direct draw temperature cannot be
lowered, increase applied pressure; however,
balance the system by changing to smaller
diameter length of vinyl tubing or install a foam
control faucet.

?

Never shut off refrigeration – day or n ight.

8)

?

No cold storage space for delivered beer;
beer becomes warm in barrel.

8)

?

Coil systems, and direct draw systems, must be
properly balanced in order to apply pressure
required for warmest temperature to which
barrels of beer will be exposed. A control beer
faucet can be used in place of a restricted coil to
balance system.

9)

?

Too much air pressure.

9)

?

Check source of pressure. Adjust pressure to
suit properly balanced system. For correct beer
flow, fill a 10 oz. Glass in 4 seconds at proper
tempe rature.

?

Check and replace a creeping regulator and
gauge.
