Operating Your KEGORATOR
™
Dispensing Beer
Follow the steps below to dispense beer.
1. Make sure that the KEGORATOR
™
is plugged in properly to a 120V, 60Hz, 15Amps
grounded AC outlet.
2. Place the drip tray under the beer faucet to avoid messes from excess beer.
3. Open the beer faucet by pulling the tap towards you to dispense the beer.
NOTE: If for any reason the beer does not come out of the tap, please refer to theTapping
the Beer Keg section.
4. Increase the pressure if the beer runs too slowly.
5. Hold the glass steady at a 45° angle. When it is 2/3 full, straighten the glass. Proper
foam should be a tight creamy head and the collar on an average glass should be ¾”
to 1” high, ideally.
NOTE: Only open the
CO
2
tank 1/4 turn to begin with and then use the regulator to adjust to
desired pour. If it is not enough, continue to open the
CO
2
tank by 1/4 turn and use regulator
until desired setting is reached.
NOTE: It is normal to see condensation form on the faucet. It is caused by the difference in
temperaturebetweenthecoldbeerandtheinsideofthefaucetwhenbeerisowingthrough
the line.
Cleaning & Maintenance
Flushing the tubes
Follow the steps below to clean the keg tap and hoses. (see illustration below)
1. Turn off CO
2
completely before attempting to clean.
2. Remove the hose from the coupler and carefully twist the dispenser faucet off
the top of the KEGORATOR™.
3. Ensure that the dispenser handle is in the
downpositionbeforeushingthehose.
Ifthisisnotsetcorrectly,watercannotow
through. Hold the open end of the hose under
running water for 3-5 minutes, while the
beer dispenser faucet drains into the sink.
This will clear any excess beer that is
trapped inside, helping to prevent any
bacteria or mold that could accumulate inside.
4. In order to clean and remove any excess beer that
may leak into the unit space inside the door, remove
the black rubber insulation and wipe with a wet towel
as needed.
Storage & Care
Follow the guidelines below to care for your KEGORATOR™ when not in use.
• PleaseadjustthetemperaturecontroldialtoMIDorLOWincolder
environments because this unit does not self-defrost and ice may build up inside the
unit. The temperature control dial is located on the back side of the KEGORATOR™
inside the cut out area at the bottom to the lower left.
• AlwaysrinsethebeerlineifyoudonotintendtouseyourKEGORATOR™ for a
