glass. Proper foam should be a tight, creamy head and the collar on an
average glass should be 3/4" to 1" high.
Note: It is normal to see condensation forming on the tap. It is caused by the
difference in temperature between the cold beer and the inner surfaces of the
tap when beer is flowing through the line.
The recommended temperature for serving chilled beer is between 38° and 43°F.
To maintain this temperature in average room conditions of 70°F, set the
thermostat accordingly.
Understanding Beer Temperature
Notes: During the summertime when temperatures are warmer, we recommend
that you adjust the control to a cooler setting. Selecting and maintaining the
proper temperature inside the refrigerator cabinet is necessary for maintaining
the flavor and freshness of beer. Excessively cold or warm temperatures
inside the refrigerator cabinet may cause a loss of flavor.
The best temperature for storing a keg is approximately 38°F.
Sour beer is produced as a result of secondary fermentation above 45°F.
The following tips will help you serve the perfect beer. To serve beer from the
tap similar to the way it left the vat, check the following:
