USER GUIDE

DISPENSE

Ensuring a good pour is a combination of beverage and 
beer line temperature, level of beverage carbonation, and 
pouring pressure.

01. 

The gas remains connected to the BrewKeg50

TM

 

from the previous Clarification steps, set at 1.1 
bar (16 psi). 

Provided the BrewKeg50

TM

 remains under 5ºC 

(41ºF), it is okay to leave the sediment bottle 
attached with the bottom valve closed while 
dispensing. If you want to remove and dump the 
sediment bottle, close the bottom valve, connect 
the silicone hose to the outlet on the drain 
valve and sit the other end into a container/jug, 
open the valve clockwise to relieve the pressure 
and lower the liquid level below the screwed 
connection before screwing the lower half of the 
sediment bottle to remove. It screws off clockwise 
as you are looking down at it. This is advisable 
to do in a drained or suitable area for hosing off 
yeast sediment up underneath the valve fitting. 
 
Important: If you have left the sediment bottle on 
while dispensing, make sure you open the valve 
again before exposing the BrewKeg™ to higher 
temperatures where the yeast might re-activate 
and create pressure. 

02. 

Connect the black fitting of your draft beer tap to 
the liquid out post on the BrewKeg50

TM

 (marked 

with an ‘L’).  

NOTE: Ensure your beer lines are chilled from being 
contained within your fridge prior to pouring. If you use 
a Kegerator ensure your fan has been on and the font 
is cool to touch. Cold beer will froth if it travels through 
warm beer lines. 

03. 

Your cold, clear, carbonated beer is ready to 
pour. Enjoy! 

NOTE: If you find the carbonation level is a too high for 
your personal preference or you are seeing too much 
froth in the beer glass (a symptom sometimes of very 
hot days and un-chilled beer lines), you can refer to the 

APPENDICES

 in this document on pressure, temperature 

and carbonation and adjust accordingly. 

04. 

You can transfer the beverage to bottles or kegs 
if required. Simply follow supplied instructions 
and refer to the Video Resources on the 
WilliamsWarn website. 

05. 

Once the beer is dispensed it is best to leave the 
BrewKeg50

TM

 chilled until you intend to clean it.  

WARNING: 

If removing the BrewKeg50

TM

 from the fridge 

while the sediment bottle is full, ensure that the bottom 
valve is in the open position to avoid pressure building up 
in the sediment bottle.
