Pouring a glass of beer
Pouring the ideal beer starts with a cold, clean glass. Rinse the glass under cold water before
filling it with beer. Hold the glass at a slight angle under the tap and pull the tap handle
fully forward (45°). If it is not fully open an excessive amount of froth will form. Once the
glass is 3/4 full, gradually bring it into the upright position as you pour. Move the glass away
from the tap to increase the froth produced or nearer to the tap to finish filling the glass
without increasing the amount of froth. Return the tap to the upright position.
Do not immerse the end of the tap in the liquid inside the glass as this is unhygienic.
At first, the liquid may splutter as air is driven through the system, but the flow will soon
become even.
Keep an eye on the drip tray and empty and rinse it at regular intervals during use.
Care and maintenance
Clean your beverage machine after use, when fitting a new keg and at regular intervals.
The machine, tubes, adaptors and accessories must be kept clean in order to optimise the
quality of the beer or other beverage and prevent odours.
