Step 1 - Preparing a glass
In order to obtain perfect draft 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 display that the beer has
reached the right drinking temperature.
Position a glass beneath the tap, holding it at an angle
of 45 degrees (see picture).
Avoid contact between the dispensing spout and the
glass. This could cause excessive foaming.
Firmly and quickly pull the handle down as far as it will
go. Let the beer run into the glass.
Avoid contact between the dispensing spout, glass and
beer already in the glass.
Note: Every time you install a new keg in the
BeerTender, the first glass of beer will fill up with too
much foam. When this occurs, allow the glass to stand
on the drip tray. As soon as the foam has settled, fill up
the glass.
Note: Too much foam will also be generated if the tap
handle is opened just slightly or slowly, several beers can
be dispensed in sequence when the tap handle is open.
The beer will flow out more slowly after the first glass has
been filled.
Step 3 – Beer in the glass
Place the glass of beer on the grate and wait for the
foam to settle.
