Preparation
1 Chill the keg thoroughly before use. If the keg is not cold enough, too much froth will
form when you serve the beer.
2 Store the keg in a cool place.
3 The keg must be at or below room temperature before putting it into the appliance.
4 Check the use-by date before putting a keg into the appliance. Do not use the keg if the
use-by date has passed.
5 The keg can be pre-cooled in two ways:
- inside the beverage machine. Kegs will take around 15 hours with model 14463-56 and
2 hours with to cool to the correct temperature. Place your keg at the
centre of the appliance without attaching the tubes and move the pump slide (located
under the lid) to AIR OFF (slide to the bottom). Close the lid of the machine. Plug the
connector into the machine’s power socket and press the switch to the rear of the
appliance. Adjust the temperature.
- in the refrigerator. Kegs will take around 10 hours to cool depending on the cooling
capacity of your refrigerator.
Warning: Do not chill kegs in a freezer. As with glass bottles, kegs may explode when frozen.
Tip: Keep a keg in the refrigerator in advance so you always have a chilled keg available.
We would also recommend that you switch the appliance on an hour before using it to
give it time to cool down properly.
6 The keg must not be shaken. If it is shaken, leave it to rest for 4 hours before using it or
the pressure will result in excessive frothing.
N.B.: Do not shake or drop kegs. Do not expose them to sunlight or to temperatures greater
than 30°C and do not pierce or burn, even after use.
