DISPENSING SYSTEM
The dispensing system consists of one of the many
different styles and sizes of dispensing towers which
can have any number of dispensing faucets used to
dispense the beer into the glass, mug or pitcher. As
the beer comes out of the conduit it must be adjusted
to give a maximum 2 oz per second flow rate to reduce
the chance of foaming and to dispense a proper glass
of beer. The proper way to adjust the flow rate of the
beer is to reduce the diameter of the tubing, using an
installer calculated length, of 3/16" diameter restrictor
tubing. The beer then flows through an aluminum or
stainless steel heat exchanger, that is kept in contact
with the very cold glycol lines, to maintain the cold
temperature all the way to the dispensing faucet and
into the glass.
