Frequently Asked Questions:
Draft beer systems are liquid dispensing systems that keep beer stored in kegs, making sure it is served fresh and cold at the appropriate pressure and temperature.
Draft beer systems operate with CO2 or nitrogen gas, which keeps kegs at a balanced pressure and moves the beer through the lines to the tap for serving.
Beverage-grade CO2 systems are used for carbonated drinks, including beers, ciders, seltzers, sparkling wines, and carbonated kegged cocktails. Beverage-grade nitrogen is applied to still beverages, such as red and white wines, cold brew coffee, and nitro coffees at higher gas pressure. Nitro stouts use a composition of 25% CO2 and 75% nitrogen.
Yes, you can serve carbonated and non-carbonated beverages by altering the gas type and pressure levels in the system, depending on the specific drink.
A usual draft beer system contains keg couplers, beer and gas tubing, both primary and secondary gas regulators, beer FOBs, insulated trunk lines that are glycol-cooled, a glycol power pack, tap towers with taps and drip trays, and several stainless steel fittings and clamps.
Maintenance of a draft beer system includes glycol maintenance on the glycol power pack every six months, consistent cleaning and sanitizing of beverage lines, replacing vinyl beer lines every 12 to 24 months, disassembling and cleaning taps and keg couplers regularly, inspecting all insulated glycol trunk lines for damage, and cleaning beer FOBs every six months.

It's vital to clean your draft beer system on a regular basis. Draft beer lines should be cleaned every two weeks with a caustic solution and twice a year with an acid cleaning solution. Keeping your equipment clean helps avoid the growth of bacteria and mold in your cooler. Learn more here.
Implementing draft beer systems offers various advantages, especially for businesses that wish to improve customer satisfaction. A draft beer system ensures that:
- The ideal temperature is kept for a perfect pour every time.
- An extensive selection of beer options is available on tap to satisfy a range of preferences.
- Quick and optimized service during peak hours.
- Packaging waste is decreased by reducing the necessity for bottles and cans.
Selecting the best draft beer system relies on various considerations, including the size of your venue, the number of beer lines needed, available space, and your specific storage requirements. For additional information, please contact us.
Yes, draft beer systems can be installed in home bars. There are various options available to fit home configurations, from straightforward kegerators to custom-designed systems.
With proper upkeep, beer in a draft system stays fresh for 30 to 60 days, depending on how it's stored and the beer variety.
Draft beer systems are made to work with ⅙ barrel kegs, ¼ barrel kegs, full ½ barrel kegs, and Euro kegs.

Most draft beer system problems are linked to temperature, particularly in keg storage and dispensing. Line cleanliness and gas issues can also be factors. If you're experiencing difficulties with your draft beer system, please reach out for assistance.
If you're experiencing repeated breakdowns, variations in beer quality, or your system isn't meeting the volume needs of your business, it may be time to consider an upgrade.
The price for installing a draft beer system varies according to its complexity, the number of beer lines, and whether it is a direct draw system with taps on the cooler wall or a remote long draw system using glycol-cooled trunk lines for taps positioned away from the cooler.
