GETTING ThE BEERTENDER REaDy
For your oWN ANd oThErS’ SAFETy, PLEASE KEEP
mETICuLouSLy To ThE “SAFETy ruLES”.
CooLING ThE BEERTENDER KEG
n
BeerTender kegs must be chilled before use.
n
Using a BeerTender keg that is too warm will result in too much foam.
n
There are two ways to chill the BeerTender Keg:
1. inside the BeerTender (see “Using the BeerTender”). It will take about
15 hours to cool the keg down to 4°C if the BeerTender Keg and the
appliance are stabilized at a room temperature of 20°C.
2. in a refrigerator. This will take about 12 hours depending on the cooling
capacity of your refrigerator.
Tip:
we recommend that you always keep an extra BeerTender Keg in the
refrigerator. That way you will always have a chilled keg available.
We also recommend that you switch the appliance on at least one hour before
intended use to get full benefit from the pre-cooling of the keg.
WArNING!
Do not attempt to chill the keg in a freezer. just like glass
bottles, a keg may burst when placed in the freezer. moreover, freezing
diminishes the quality of the beer -

INsTaLLING ThE BEERTENDER aPPLIaNCE
n
The original packing is designed and made to protect the appliance. It is
recommended that you keep it for future transport.
n
Remove the BeerTender appliance from the packaging and place it on a dry,
clean, level, stable surface that is sufficiently large to accommodate it.
n
The temperature of the room must be between 12°C and 30°C. -

n
set the drip tray and grate in place at the front of the appliance. make sure
the drip tray is properly fitted and positioned.
n
Do not install the appliance near sources of heat or in places exposed to
direct sunlight.
Note:
keep in mind that during use the drip tray will have to be emptied and
rinsed regularly. When the BeerTender system is not in use, you can remove
the drip tray and place it elsewhere to save space.
WArNING!
The drip tray must be positioned on a level surface and must
not jut out from the surface it is resting on.
