Preparation
1. Any standard 5 litre party keg can be used.
ATTENTION!
If the keg has been shaken (transport, etc.), the beer
must be allowed to stand for a suffi cient time prior to
use.
2. Cool the 5 litre party keg prior to use. The optimal
drinking temperature is about 6-8°C. The beer from
a warmer keg is less refreshing. Heavy foaming can
also result. To cool the keg in the beer dispenser, it is
recommended to place it in the connected dispenser
the day before. At a keg temperature of about 23°C,
it is recommended to wait 16 hours before pulling
the fi rst glasses of beer.
NOTE:
• The cooling time in the refrigerator is between 6
and 12 hours depending on the brand and capacity
due to the sophisticated cooling technology. This
allows the cooling to process to be accelerated.
Storing the 5 litre party keg in a refrigerator offers
the advantage of always having a second keg ready
to use.
ATTENTION!
• Never cool the party keg in a freezer as it can
burst. Shock cooling can impair the quality of beer.
3. Depending on the 5 litre party keg stopper, it may be
necessary to use the supplied tools for removing the
stopper and the supplied universal adapter. Described
in the following is when the use of tools is necessary
and how these should be used.
ATTENTION!
• Before removing the stopper,
always fi rst vent the keg as
stated on the keg and allow to
stand for a suffi cient period so
that the foam does not escape
from the vent opening.
3.1 Rubber stopper
Kegs with rubber stoppers are easy to tap. Rubber
stoppers do not require the use of any tools or adapters.
3.2 Combination stopper
The combination stopper is identical to
the conventional aerator stopper. The
advantage of this stopper shows just
before tapping.
The combination stopper must fi rst be
aerated and subsequently removed by
fi rmly pulling on the stopper cover. The
combination stopper can be easily
tapped after removing the stopper
cover as described under Item 4 of this
chapter. No tools or adapters are
required.
3.3 Aerator stopper
Like the combination stopper, the
aerator stopper cover must initially be
removed.
The procedure is then as follows. Once
the aerator stopper has been identifi ed
as such, the aforementioned auxiliary
tool must be used. Proceed as
described below.
3.4 Plastic aerator stopper
The plastic aerator stopper can be
recognised, as with the rubber stopper,
on purchasing the keg. However, the
plastic aerator stopper cannot be
tapped without using the auxiliary tool.
Remove the stopper cover and proceed
as described below in order to make
the keg ready to use.
To remove the stopper, apply the
auxiliary tool below the sealing ring and
squeeze the two handles together until
the stopper is cut through.
NOTE:
The lower half of the stopper which falls into the beer is
tasteless and unharmful.
Once the stopper has been removed,
the supplied universal adapter can be
inserted into the bunghole in the keg
and the following carried out.
