Excessive Foaming
5
Trouble Shooting
Excessive foaming is usually the result of:
i. too much pressure difference between the keg pressure (inlet pressure) and the bottle
pressure, or
ii. too high a filling temperature.
Turning the Bottle Pressure Adjustment Knob clockwise will increase the bottle pressure and
reduce foaming. The higher the bottle pressure and lower the temperature, the more CO2
will stay in solution.
The XF4500 is a Level Fill machine, meaning when
liquid touches a spout and the probe, it will
automatically shut off. If moisture is allowed to
collect between the spout and the probe, the filler
will shut off prematurely, stopping the fill or not
allowing the fill to begin at all. This is evidenced by
the green LED fill indicator light flashing once
quickly and then staying off as the machine
“senses” a full bottle is in place.
Dry the area between the spout and the probe with
a clean towel or use the compressor to air dry.
Once completely dry, the fill can resume. Isopropyl
alcohol is very good for cleaning and is fast drying.
