DraftꢀBeerꢀInformationꢀ–ꢀConcessionaireꢀDispensers
Temperature
At temperatures lower than 30° F., beer will freeze.
One of the most common causes of dispensing
problems is improper temperature. Draft beer
should be stored at a temperature between 32°
and 38°. At warmer temperatures, beer will foam.
When beer freezes, the alcohol in the beer may
separate and cause the beer to be cloudy with an
“off” taste.
Refrigeration and Temperature Control
Adjusting the Temperature
The Concessionaire’s are equipped with a heavy-
duty refrigeration system that is factory set to
maintain a product storage temperature of approxi-
mately 38° F.
The temperature control is inside the cabinet on
the right-hand side of the evaporator fan panel
assembly. You will need a screwdriver to turn the
adjusting screw. Make small adjustments until the
desired temperature is achieved.
■
Colder Temperatures:
Turn the adjusting screw clockwise (to the right).
Warmer Temperatures:
■
Turn the adjusting screw counterclockwise
(to the left).
The condenser fan motor turns off and on with the
condensing unit. The evaporator fan motor runs
continuously. The fan motors are lifetime lubricated
and will require no oiling.
NOTE:
Cabinet Temperatures lower than 34° will not allow
for proper defrosting of the evaporator coil. If
defrosting is necessary, turn the control knob to the
OFF position until coil is defrosted.

CleaningꢀtheꢀBeerꢀSystemꢀ–ꢀConcessionaireꢀDispensers
■
The entire beer system, to include the faucet, flexible
beer line and tapping devices must be cleaned at
regular intervals. We recommend flushing the entire
system with fresh water immediately after a keg has
been emptied. Once each month the system should
be cleaned chemically.
beer Stone:
All beer contains calcium which is present from
the grains used in the brewing process. it is an
important natural material in draft systems in
that as it oxidizes it coats the internal parts of
the beer lines and equipment. This thin coat of
beer stone helps prevent the beer from picking
up strong metallic or plastic flavors as it flows
through the system. The beer stone will
continue to build if the system is not cleaned
properly or regularly and can cause drawing
problems if it begins to flake off. Beer stone is
present if one can see a brownish color on the
faucet or inner wall of the beer line, or tobacco-
like flakes in the beer.
It is recommended that you purchase Perlick’s
Pump Type Cleaning Kit. It is equipped with an
adapter that attaches directly to the faucet shank,
jar with pump, cleaning solution, faucet brush and
spanner wrench.
Cleaning the draft beer system will help to
eliminate the buildup of the following materials:
■
bacteria:
Cleaning the Cabinet
Beer is an excellent food for bacteria (none of
which is harmful). Proper conditions may begin
the growth of bacteria in draft beer and on the
beer faucet. By regular cleaning, we prevent
this bacterial buildup and maintain the quality
of the draft beer. Greenish or yellowish colored
material on the faucet may indicate bacterial
growth.
use a mild detergent and water to clean the inside
and outside of the cabinet. Dry thoroughly. Never
use a scouring pad or abrasive cleanser.
NOTE: An industrial strength, commercial cleaner
can be used to clean the outside of painted
cabinets.
■
Yeast:
Cleaning the Condenser
All domestic draft beers contain a small amount
of yeast which remains in the beer from the
fermentation process. When the temperature of
draft beer exceeds 50° a process of secondary
fermentation may take place. The beer faucet
may exhibit a white colored substance (yeast
build up) if not cleaned on a regular basis.
use a long handled, stiff brush to clean the dirt
from the front surface of the condenser. Keeping
the condenser free from dust and dirt will ensure
efficient operation.
CAUTION: Do not bend the fins while brushing the
front of the condenser.

PouringꢀaꢀPerfectꢀGlassꢀofꢀBeerꢀ–ꢀConcessionaireꢀDispensers
STEP 1
Start with a clean glass.
Place the glass at a 45°
angle, one inch below
faucet. Do not let the
glass touch the faucet.
Open the faucet all the
way.
STEP 2
After the glass has
reached half full,
gradually bring the
glass to the upright
position
STEP 3
Let the remaining beer
run straight down the
middle of the glass.
This ensures proper
release of CO2 by
producing a 3⁄4”ꢀto 1”
foam head.
STEP 4
Close the faucet quickly
and completely.

■
■
Solution: Keg must be colder than
40°. Target temperature is between
36° and 38° F.
Cabinet door is opened and closed
frequently and temperature is warmer
than 38° F.
Solution: Adjust temperature to between
36° and 38° F.

Most people prefer beer stored at 38° F.
Beer lines and faucets require regular cleaning
(see cleaning instructions on page 7).
A fully-charged 4.2 lb. CO2 cylinder will
dispense approximately 51⁄2 to 61⁄2 half barrels.
CO2 gas gives beer its sparkling effervescence.
It also gives beer its creamy head of foam.

■
Regulator malfunction.
■ Flat beer:
Foamy head disappears quickly; beer lacks
brewery fresh flavor.
Causes:
■
Dirty glassware.
CO2 pressure is too low, due to leak or
pressure setting.
CO2 is turned off at night.
Cooler is too cold.
CO2 leak or defective (sticking)
