Cleaning the Beer System – 

Direct Draw Dispensers Self-Contained

The entire beer system, to include the faucet, flexible
beer line and tapping devices must be cleaned at 
regular intervals. We recommend flushing the entire
system with fresh water immediately after a keg has
been emptied. Once each month the system should
be cleaned chemically.

It is recommended that you purchase Perlick’s
Pump Type Sterilizer, as shown below. It is
equipped with an adapter that attaches directly to
the faucet shank in lieu of the faucet. It is also 
available with a slip coupling for those who choose
to clean their faucets in place.

Cleaning the draft beer system
will help to eliminate the buildup
of the following materials:

■   

Bacteria:
Beer is an excellent food for 
bacteria (none of which is 
harmful). Proper conditions 
may begin the growth of 
bacteria in draft beer and on 
the beer faucet. By regular 
cleaning, we prevent this 
bacterial buildup and 
maintain the quality of the 
draft beer. Greenish or 

yellowish colored material on the faucet may 
indicate bacterial growth.

Yeast:
All domestic draft beers contain a small amount 
of yeast which remains in the beer from the 
fermentation process. When the temperature of 
draft beer exceeds 50° a process of secondary 
fermentation may take place. The beer faucet 
may exhibit a white colored substance (yeast 
build up) if not cleaned on a regular basis.

Beer Stone:
All beer contains calcium which is present from 
the grains used in the brewing process. it is an 
important natural material in draft systems in 
that as it oxidizes it coats the internal parts of 
the beer lines and equipment. This thin coat of 
beer stone helps prevent the beer from picking 
up strong metallic or plastic flavors as it flows 
through the system. The beer stone will 
continue to build if the system is not cleaned 
properly or regularly and can cause drawing 
problems if it begins to flake off. Beer stone is 
present if one can see a brownish color on the 
faucet or inner wall of the beer line, or tobacco-
like flakes in the beer.

Cleaning the Cabinet

Use a mild detergent and water to clean the inside
and outside of the cabinet. Dry thoroughly. Never
use a scouring pad or abrasive cleanser. 
NOTE: An industrial strength, commercial cleaner
can be used to clean the outside of painted 
cabinets. 

Cleaning the Condenser

Use a long handled, stiff brush to clean the dirt from
the front surface of the condenser. Keeping the
condenser free from dust and dirt will ensure effi-
cient operation. 
CAUTION: Do not bend the fins while brushing the
front of the condenser.
