BEVERAGE SYSTEM CLEANING
Sanitize the beverage system at initial start-up as well as
regularly scheduled cleaning. The drain pan must be in
place under soda valves, to carry away detergent and
sanitizing agents that will be flushed through valves.
BAG-IN-BOX SYSTEM SANITATION
The procedure below is for the sanitation of one
syrup circuit at a time. Repeat to sanitize additional
circuits.
You will need the following items to clean and sanitize
the Bag-in-Box (BIB) beverage system:
•
Three (3) clean buckets
•
Plastic brush or soft cloth
•
Mild detergent
•
Unscented bleach (5% Na CL O) or
Commercial sanitizer
•
Bag-In-Box bag connector
1. Prepare the following in the buckets:
•
Bucket 1 — warm to hot tap water for rinsing.
•
Bucket 2 — mild detergent and warm to hot
water.
•
Bucket 3 — mix a solution of unscented bleach
(5% Na CL O) or commercial sanitizer and warm
to hot water. Mixture should supply 100 PPM
available chlorine (1/4 oz. bleach to 1 gallon
water).
2. Disconnect the “syrup-line side” of the bag-in-box
connector.
3. Rinse connector with warm tap water.
4. Connect syrup connector to BIB connector and
immerse both into Bucket 1. A “bag-side” connector
can be created by cutting the connector from an
empty disposable syrup bag.
