Bottle Filling
You noticed how easy the BeerGun is to assemble and sanitize – not you’ll experience how intuitive
and fast it is to use!
We find it handy to have a sanitized heavy beer pitcher to hold the filler upright between bottles.
Arrange your workspace in an efficient manner with everything in an easy to reach location.
Prior to installing the ball lock connectors on the keg posts, spray the post with a bit of no-rinse
sanitizer. After letting it sit for a couple minutes, install the connectors. Set the regulator to ½ of the
normal dispensing pressure and open the pop-off valve on the keg to equalize the pressure to this new
setting.
Clear the CO
2
line of air by depressing the brass push valve for a few seconds. Purge the beer line by
pulling the beer trigger quickly open until the beer flows through it and all foam is out of the line.
Important
: Always QUICKLY OPEN AND CLOSE the beer valve to reduce foaming.
Take a bottle and remove the foil cap. Insert the stem of the filler all the
way to the bottom of the bottle as shown in Fig. 12. Depress the CO
2
valve for 3-5 seconds to purge the bottle of air.
Note: it is normal to get a small leakage of CO
2
at the gap where the
beer tube passes through the hole in the brass elbow. This small
clearance is needed to ensure smooth operation of the beer tube.
Holding the bottle at an angle with the stem of the filler in the bottom
corner of the bottle (Fig 13), QUICKLY pull the beer trigger and flood the
tip of the filler as quickly as possible to reduce foaming. When the tip
has been immersed in beer, you can return the bottle to an upright
position.
Fill the bottle until any foam has spilled out of the neck and is completely
full of beer and QUICKLY release the trigger to stop the flow of beer.
Remove the stem and the volume displaced by the stem will form an
ideal and consistent fill level.
For bottles larger than 22oz and growlers, the stem may not reach to the
bottom of the bottle. Keep the bottle at an angle, letting the beer run
down the side of the bottle until the tip of the filler is immersed, then
proceed as follows.
