Sanitizing the Syrup Systems
Two main objectives in your closing procedures
must be to:
1. Discard all syrup at least once a week.
2. Flush the syrup lines at least twice a week.
This must be done on a regular basis
a. to keep a build-up of old syrup from
clogging the lines, and
b. to break the bacteria chain which develops
in the tanks and lines.
Remember: Calibrating the syrup flow must be
done once every morning, especially after flushing
the syrup lines.
Step 1
Sanitizing the syrup tanks. Pull back on the collar
of the quick disconnect fitting of the air line. Allow
the air pressure to dissipate from the syrup tank.
Disconnect the syrup line.
Remove the syrup tank from its compartment.
Remove the syrup tank lid by lifting up on the locking
lever, and discard the remaining syrup.
Rinse the syrup tank with clean, warm water.
Prepare 1/2 gallon (1.9 liters) of the recommended
sanitizing solution with warm water in the syrup
tank. Brush clean the inside and outside of the tank.
Remove the syrup line fitting. Remove the dip tube
and o-ring from the syrup tank.
Thoroughly brush clean the dip tube, syrup line
fitting, and o-ring using the sanitizing solution.
Reassemble the dip tube, o-ring, and syrup line
fitting.
Pour off all the sanitizing solution and place the tank
in an upside-down position on a clean, dry surface to
air dry.
Repeat this procedure for all the syrup tanks.
Step 2
Sanitizing the syrup lines. Prepare one gallon (3.8
liters) of the recommended sanitizing solution with
warm water in the spare syrup tank. Replace and
lock the tank lid in position. Place this tank in the
syrup compartment.
Connect one of the air lines and the corresponding
syrup line to the syrup tank filled with sanitizing
solution.
