HOW TO OPERATE
Before you begin, determine whether you are tapping a pressurized keg, non-pressurized
keg, or the included 5L Growler Keg. Follow the steps below for each type of keg.
5L STANDARD NON-PRESSURIZED KEGS
1. Chill the keg for 10-12 hours in the refrigerator, or for 4-6 hours in an ice bath.
2. Find a stable, waterproof surface near an electrical outlet to set the unit. Make sure the cord
is away from any water source.
NOTE: When moving the keg, take care not to shake or jostle the keg
as it may cause your beer to pour with too much foam.
3. Check that the Drain Tab is in the closed position (up position),
and there are no extra objects in the Cooling Cavity.
4. Add 3 cups (800 ml) of water into the Cooling Cavity. Be sure water levels do not exceed
the MAX line found inside the Cooling Cavity. The water works to keep the keg cool.
5. Set the LED Temperature Display to your desired temperature by pressing the "-" and "+"
buttons.
NOTE: It may take several hours to reach your desired temperature.
This is why it is important to chill your keg beforehand.
6. Turn the Power Switch to ON (I).
7. Follow the steps under KEG LIFTER ASSEMBLY for STANDARD NON-
PRESSURIZED KEGS, and secure the Keg Lifter Assembly to your keg.
8. Turn the CO2 Regulator Knob to the OFF position (turn dial all the way clockwise).
9. Making sure the keg is upright, carefully place your keg into the Cooling Cavity.
NOTE: Make sure the Suction Cup is securely fashioned to the bottom of
the Cooling Cavity. The Suction Cup ensures the keg will not oat.
10. Connect the Keg Adapter to the CO2 Line and Beer Line.
11. Tilt the CO2 Holder out from the Top Cover and
unscrew the CO2 Sheath. Insert a CO2 Cartridge into
the CO2 Sheath, rounded end rst. Then screw the
CO2 Sheath tightly onto the CO2 Holder. Tilt the CO2
Holder back into the Top Cover.
NOTE: When the CO2 cartridge has been
pierced, your should hear a short burst
of CO2 escape from the cartridge.
12. To pour a beer, slowly turn the Regulator Dial counterclockwise to
increase the CO2 pressure within the keg. When you hear the CO2
begin to ow, you may want to pause to try pouring a beer.
• If the beer does not have enough foam for your liking, slowly increase the CO2
pressure. DO NOT increase the CO2 pressure too quickly or your beer may dispense too
quickly and with too much foam.
PRO TIP:
When the regulator is open, CO2 will continue owing into the keg. This may
result in a surplus of pressure owing into the keg, and may be a cause of foamy beer.
If you experience foamy beer, simply ll the keg with CO2, then turn the Regulator
Knob to the OFF position. As more beer is dispensed, add small amounts of CO2 into
the keg to displace the dispensed beer, then turn the Regulator Knob back to OFF.
