Operation
Tapping
Once you tap a keg, you need to take a few simple steps to make
sure that you get a good flow of beer.
- DO NOT OVERPUMP!
If the tap has a pressure release valve, use it to completely bleed
the pressure off of the keg (it will build considerable pressure on
the trip home).
- Pump the tap A COUPLE OF TIMES with the faucet open (as if pouring
a beer) until you get a nice steady flow.
- Then STOP PUMPING! Only pump the tap when the flow tapers off and
only with the faucet open. (Overpumping will only get you a glass of
foam!)
Cooling your keg
KEGS MUST BE KEPT COLD! Treat your keg like a bottle of milk. If it gets
warm, it goes sour or will not pour properly.
Age Requirements
ANYONE INVOLVED
IN PURCHASING A KEG MUST BE AT LEAST 21 YEARS OF AGE!! This means that,
NO, you cannot use a roommate's check or credit card for the deposit.
