CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
A regular cleaning once every two (2) weeks of the faucet, beer hose, and keg coupler is
extremely important when the kegerator is used frequently. If this is not performed, the beer will
foam. Additionally, bacteria, yeast, mold, and beer stone will build up and quickly degrade the
quality of draft beer. A few minutes spent cleaning on a regular basis will add life to your system,
and improve the quality of your draft beer!
Exterior Cleaning
The door and cabinet may be cleaned with a mild detergent and lukewarm water solution such
as 2 tablespoons of baking soda to 1 quart of water.
Do not use solvent based or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft sponge and rinse with clean water.
Wipe with a soft clean towel to prevent water spotting. If the door panel is stainless steel, it can
discolor when exposed to chlorine gas and moisture. Clean stainless steel with a cloth
dampened with a mild detergent and warm water solution. Never use an abrasive or caustic
cleaning agent.
Interior Cleaning
The
kegerator’s interior should be cleaned occasionally.
1. Disconnect power to the unit.
2. Open the door and remove the contents.
3. Wait until the unit defrosts.
4. With a clean cloth, wipe down the interior of the unit.
5. Reconnect power to the unit.
