Form No.Z2278
Rev. 11.29.10
The entire beer system, to include the faucet, 
flexible beer line and tapping devices must be 
cleaned at regular intervals. We recommend 
flushing the entire system with fresh water 
immediately after a keg has been emptied. 
Once each month the system should be cleaned 
chemically.
It is recommended that you purchase 
Perlick’s 
Pump Type Cleaning Kit (part #63798). It is 
equipped with an adapter that attaches directly 
to the faucet shank, jar with pump, cleaning 
solution, faucet brush and spanner wrench.
Cleaning the draft beer system will help to 
eliminate the buildup of the following materials:
 
Bacteria
Beer is an excellent food for bacteria (none 
of which is harmful). Proper conditions may 
begin the growth of bacteria in draft beer and 
on the beer faucet. By regular cleaning, we 
prevent this bacterial buildup and maintain 
the quality of the draft beer. Greenish or 
yellowish colored material on the faucet may 
indicate bacterial growth.
 
Yeast
All domestic draft beers contain a small 
amount of yeast which remains in the beer 
from the fermentation process. When the 
temperature of draft beer exceeds 50°F, a 
process of secondary fermentation may take 
place. The beer faucet may exhibit a white 
colored substance (yeast build up) if not 
cleaned on a regular basis.
 
Beer Stone
All beer contains calcium which is present 
from the grains used in the brewing process. 
It is an important natural material in draft 
systems in that as it oxidizes, it coats 
the internal parts of the beer lines and 
equipment. This thin coat of beer stone helps 
prevent the beer from picking up strong 
metallic or plastic flavors as it flows through 
the system. The beer stone will continue to 
build if the system is not cleaned properly or 
regularly and can cause drawing problems if 
it begins to flake off. Beer stone is present if 
one can see a brownish color on the faucet 
or inner wall of the beer line, or tobacco-like 
flakes in the beer.
cleaning the cabinet
Use a mild detergent and water to clean the 
inside and outside of the cabinet. Dry thoroughly. 
never use a scouring pad or abrasive cleanser.
NOTE: An industrial strength, commercial 
cleaner can be used to clean the outside of 
painted cabinets.
cleaning the condenser
Use a long handled, stiff brush to clean the dirt 
from the front surface of the condesner. Keeping 
the condenser free from dust and dirt will ensure 
efficient operation.
CAUTION: Do not bend the fins while 
brushing the front of the condenser!
