Maintaining pressure
BeerTender is equipped with a pump which maintains the
right pressure inside the BeerTender Keg both for
dispensing beer and preserving its quality. The
compressor will start up in four situations:
1. when you close the lid, with a keg inside: the pump will
adjust the pressure to the right level;
2. when you are dispensing beer: when the keg is getting
empty the pump will start after a delay or not at all;
3. when the appliance is on stand-by cooling mode: in
order to maintain the quality of the beer, the BeerTender
system keeps the pressure in the keg at the right level.
If you dispense just a few glasses of beer, the pump will
run on average 3 or 4 times a day.
4. When opening the lid of the BeerTender appliance, the
air pressure built up in the Beer Tender is released. The
keg may also make a sizzling sound for a short while.
7 Dispensing beer
Note: always check the “best before end” date shown on
the side of the BeerTender Keg. Do not use the
BeerTender Keg beyond this date.
Note: the beer must be dispensed into suitable
containers; the dispensing function is started and
stopped manually by the user.
Step 1 – Preparing a glass
In order to obtain perfect draught beer, it is essential to
start with a clean, cool glass.
Rinse the glass in cold water before dispensing beer (the
colder the glass the better).
Tip: we recommend using your beer glasses for drinking
beer alone. Some beverages, like milk, leave a small
residue in the glass, which will reduce the head on your
beer.
Step 2 – Dispensing beer
Tip: verify on the control panel that the beer has reached
the right drinking temperature.
Position a glass beneath the tap, holding it at an angle of
45 degrees (see drawing).
