Pinnacle 2 and 4 Flavor Service Manual
6.
Press GO again. Collect sample from cup and close valve at end of sample tube. Place adequate
amount on refractometer and read Brix. A target Brix reading of 13.0 (+/- 1.0) is normally desired for
sugar-based syrups. Lower values for some diet syrups can be specified. Check with the syrup
manufacturer if you are not sure.
7.
If reading is out of specification the syrup level needs to be adjusted. NEVER change the WATER
FLOW CONTROL setting to adjust Brix (FIGURE 26).
8.
To increase Brix reading, turn syrup regulator clockwise. Turn counter-clockwise to decrease Brix.
Adjust flow control in no more than ½-turn increments. Repeat steps 4 through 6 for each
adjustment until desired Brix setting is achieved.
9.
After finishing step 8 for first barrel, repeat steps 1 through 8 for next barrel.
NOTE: If Brix percent cannot be set in step 8, check the water flow rate. To do this verify flow in
cup is at least 6.3 to 6.9 oz. (186 to 204 ml) in 3 seconds.
NOTE: If water flow is low, boost incoming water pressure.
