FLAT BEER Foamy head disappears quickly: beer lacks usual zestful brewery fresh flavor. Causes 1) ? Greasy glass 2) ? Improper drawing of beer into glass. 3) ? Not enough pressure. 4) ? Defective Thomas and Tongue Vents. ? Pressure is shut off. 5) ? Pre-color, or beer system, too cold. 6) ? Sluggish pressure regulators. Corrections 1) ? Do not wash beer glasses together with glasses that have contained milk or any other fatty substance. Lipstick is a fatty substance..
7) ? Contaminated air source. ? Oil or grease fumes. 7) ? Filter all air after it leaves compressor. ? Oil fume from compressor, of kitchen grease fumes, pumped into beer, will cause Flat Beer. ? If possible CO2 gas should be used as a pressure source. 8) ? With the use of an air compressor, it is imperative to have a moisture trap installed in the Pre-cooler, and drained daily. This is in addition to an activated charcoal filter, necessary to purify the air just before it enters the barrel.
? 3) ? Rubber hose will absorb and retain odors. 4) ? Unfiltered air, Air is moisture ridden or oily. Dirty air lines should be washed with a good cleaning compound, normally used for cleaning coils, and then rinsed clean. 3) ? Rubber hose will absorb and retain odors. An approved Vinyl tubing is best for air since it does not absorb moisture, and is not affected by oily substances. ? A fresh, outdoor, air line is imperative when air is the source of pressure. 4) ? Air must always be filtered.
2) ? Yeast growth, or other obstructions in faucet. ? Worn faucet parts and worn faucet washers. 3) ? Kinks, dents, or twists in coils, or direct draw lines: obstructions in line, near, or behind faucet. 4) ? Sag, or trap in line. 5) ? Beer too warm at faucet; ? Beer too warm in Coil System. ? Beer too warm in Air Shaft System. 6) ? Hot spots in line. 7) ? Pre-Cooler, or Direct Draw Dispenser, too warm. 8) ? No cold storage space for delivered beer; beer becomes warm in barrel.
? pressure must be slightly higher than the internal pressure of the beer (no more than 18 lbs. should be applied.) The colder the beer and the higher the applied CO2 pressure, the more rapid the absorption of CO2 by the beer. This over-carbonates the beer, causing Wild Beer. 11) ? Not enough pressure. ? No pressure. 11) ? Check for defective air vents. (see Flat Beer, Corrections #3 and 4.) ? Always turn pressure on before drawing beer. 12) ? Old Beer. 12) ? Rotate stock.
