BEER STORAGE TEMPERATURE
• Draft beer is not pasteurized, so it must be kept cold, preferably at 3 ºC (38 ºF). Temperatures
above 3 ºC (38 ºF) may cause the beer to become wild, turn sour and cloudy.
RECOMMENDED KEG HANDLING
• Be sure the keg is cold when you purchase it.
• Transfer keg from place of purchase and install in keg cooler in two (2) hours or less.
• After the keg is installed in the keg cooler, allow 24 hours for beverage to reach recommended
temperature.
• If the keg is exposed to ambient temperatures longer than two (2) hours, additional cooling
time will be required before beverage will reach recommended temperature.
CAUTION: DO NOT attempt to move or relocate this keg cooler with a keg inside.
