Tips

Filling

Too Much Foam

Initially your beer may be foamy at the start of the run. This is typically due to the

system being warmer than the recommended 32

-34

temperatures. Periodically

cycling the nozzles, to cool them down, will help rid the system of foam (CIP button).

It may be beneficial to run cold liquid through the system to promote cooling of the

system before your product is put through the filler for canning. This will allow for less

of your product to be wasted.

In extreme cases, it may be beneficial to rotate your beer manifold, Figure 11, so beer is

evenly distributed and air pockets don’t “hide” in the manifold.

If your brite hose, between the brite tank and canning line, is relatively long, “burping”

the line by walking foam out of the line from the brite to the canning line may also help

to remove any foam pockets.

After the CraftCan has reached a stable temperature, and is no longer warm, the fill

times should remain consistent. If inconsistent fill levels are seen, please check the brite

tank head pressure. If the brite pressure fluctuates, so too will your fill levels. (Please

contact ABE if you would like to get information on the Watch Dog unit which monitors

your brite pressure and adjusts accordingly to provide a consistent brite pressure.)

During startup, you may benefit from increasing your fill times until beer exits the can.

After you are sure the can is getting filled with beer, and not foam, you can decrease

your fill times.

You may also increase the nozzle down delay, on the Time Settings Screen, to allow for

your nozzles to dispense beer below the layer of foam in the can.

Also, an ideal brite tank pressure is between 14-16 psi. This typically produces beer with

reduced foam levels.

Too Little Foam

Turn on CO

Pulse

Increase CO

pulse flow control (turn counterclockwise)

Increase brite tank pressure

Increase beer temperature

Decrease how quickly the beer nozzle closes (flow control)
