BREWING INSTRUCTIONS

C. 

After first clarification. 

D. 

Second clarification complete, clear beer 
present in top of sediment bottle. 

06. 

The final stages of fermentation can be seen 
when there are a few fine bubbles or the 
occasional yeast ‘bombs’ rising from the yeast 
bed in the sediment bottle. Shortly following 
this you will see a clear layer of compacted 
sediment with cloudy liquid above it. There will 
be no sign of yeast activity after your fermentation 
is complete.  

07. 

If you think fermentation may not be complete, 
it is always safe to wait an additional day. 

08. 

Once fermentation is complete, it is time to chill 
your beverage to prepare it for clarification. 

09. 

Move your BrewKeg10

TM

 to your refrigerator and 

chill your beer or cider to 1-3ºC (34-37.5ºF). 

10. 

Wait 6 hours for the vessel and liquid to cool 
before commencing clarification. 

NOTE: CO

2

 pressure indicated on the Pressure Gauge will 

reduce slightly as CO

2

 is absorbed from the head space of 

the BrewKeg10

TM

 into the cooled beverage.

CLARIFICATION 

CIDER CLARIFICATION

Cider does not need to be clarified. It clears 
naturally within 24-36 hours, the closer to 
1ºC (34ºF), the more efficient the clarification. 
Once the cider is clear, you can progress to the 

DISPENSE

 stage.

BEER CLARIFICATION

You may need to dump your sediment bottle 
prior to commencing the clarification step if your 
sediment bottle is more than half full. This may 
occur if you are brewing a high alcohol beer or 
one with many steeped hops. If required, please 
follow the instructions regarding dumping of the 
sediment bottle. 

01. 

Prepare your gas bottle, regulator and gas line. 
Set your gas bottle outward pressure to 1.1 bar 
(16 psi). Refer to WilliamsWarn Video Resources 
to set up and use your gas bottle. 

02. 

Wind the VPRV valve to a fully closed position 
and close the bottom valve. 

03. 

Unscrew the lid of the Dosing Device and 
measure 15ml (0.5 fl. oz.) of Clarification Agent 
into the device. Screw the lid back on. 

04. 

Connect the Gas-Disconnect (Grey) fitting from 
the gas bottle to the lid of the Dosing Device.  

05. 

Press the VPRV valve on the BrewKeg10

TM

 lid 

until the pressure gauge reads 0.6 bar (9 psi). 
 

06. 

Connect the Liquid-Disconnect (Black) fitting 
from the Dosing Device to the liquid out post 
on the BrewKeg10

TM

 (marked ‘L’ on the lid). The 

difference in pressure ensures the Clarification 
Agent immediately bubbles through the liquid. 
You should hear the bubbling. 

07. 

Keep the Liquid-Disconnect (Black) attached 
until the pressure in the BrewKeg10

TM

 is the 

same as the gas bottle (1.1 bar / 16psi), then 
disconnect from the BrewKeg10

TM

. 

08. 

To flush the Clarification Agent residue from the 
dosing device add 30ml (1 fl. oz.) of cold water 
to the dosing device, install the lid and shake 
to clean all surfaces, before connecting back to 
the liquid out post and flushing the water into 
the BrewKeg25

TM

 by releasing a small amount 

of pressure from the vessel while it is connected 
to the Gas-Disconnect (Grey). Let the pressure 
equalise back to 1.1 bar before disconnecting. 

09. 

Disconnect the Dosing Device from the gas line 
and liquid post and remove the pressure gauge. 

10. 

Connect the Gas-Disconnect (Grey) of the gas 
bottle to the gas post on the BrewKeg10

TM

 set at 

1.1 bar (16psi).  

11. 

Open the bottom valve. The beer will now clarify 
and dump a new layer of yeast and haze into the 
sediment bottle. 

12. 

You will see a separation of clearer beer and 
sediment appearing in your sediment bottle. 

13. 

After 12 hours, repeat steps 3-12 with 10ml 
(0.34 fl. oz.) of Clarification Agent. 

14. 

A third yeast and haze layer will fall into the 
sediment bottle over the next 24 hours. 

15. 

When you see a clear line of crystal clear beer 
above the compacted sediment in your sediment 
bottle, you are now ready to enjoy your beer!
