Buying a dispensing system for your home

A home tap system is a great addition to your home bar or home, especially if you like to enjoy freshly tapped beer. Here are some steps to consider when choosing and purchasing a home beer dispenser to ensure you have the best experience possible:

The pub within your own four walls

A pub in your own four walls can be a great place to spend time with friends and family and to enjoy the ambience of a pub, a tap system is of course a must. Our team fromwww.getraenkezapfanlagen.netwill be happy to advise you.

How much space do I need?

Choose a suitable place in the house. It can be a separate room, a corner in the living room or even a room in the basement. Make sure that there is enough space to set up the dispensing system. The space required always depends on the dispensing capacity and the design of the dispensing system. You can set up our entry-level model - beer dispenser cpl. set 35 l/h in the smallest of spaces. All important dimensions for the installation can be found in the corresponding product information.

Shelf life of draught beer on tap

The shelf life of draught beer depends on various factors, such as the type of beer, the storage temperature and the type of dispensing system. As a rule, draught beer with a dispensing system stays fresh for longer than bottled or canned beer, as the beer is kept under pressure with a Co2 bottle. At the correct Co2 pressure, the beer will keep for as long as stated on the best-before date label.

Most draught beers have a best-before date, which is indicated on the label or the keg itself. Most kegs will keep for at least 30 days if stored under ideal conditions. The ideal storage temperature for cask beer is between 3 and 7 degrees Celsius.

However, the shelf life of draught beer can be affected by various factors, such as the frequency of tapping, the cleanliness of the tapping system and the type of beer. If the dispensing system is not properly maintained or cleaned, bacteria and yeast can get into the pipes and hoses and contaminate the beer.

It is therefore important to clean and maintain the dispenser regularly to ensure that the beer remains fresh and shelf life is maximised. Most dispensing systems have cleaning and maintenance instructions in the user manual that should be followed to ensure the beer remains in top condition.

Which tapping system is right for me?

The choice of dispensing system also depends on other factors, such as

Dispensing capacity

The dispensing capacity is an important factor when choosing a dispensing system. If you want to use the dispenser for parties or larger events, you should choose a dispenser with a higher dispensing capacity. However, if you are only using the dispenser for occasional use at home, a smaller dispenser may be sufficient. We offer dispensers from 35 l/h up to 500 l/h dispensing capacity.

Cooling system

There are two types of cooling systems for dispensing systems: dry flow coolers and wet flow coolers. The dry cooler is easier to install and maintain, while the wet cooler has a higher cooling capacity and is recommended for use in warmer environments.

With or without Co2

Some dispensers use a Co2 bottle to keep the beer pressurised, while others work without a Co2 bottle, but the beer can go stale within one or two days. If you want fresh beer even after days, you should choose a dispenser with a Co2 bottle.

Design

The design of the dispensing system can be an important factor, especially if you want to set up a pub in your own home. There are various designs to choose from, from a traditional wooden barrel look to modern, sleek stainless steel models.

Budget

The budget is an important factor when choosing a dispensing system. There are tapping systems in different price ranges, from inexpensive models to high-end devices.

Overall, you should choose a dispensing system that fits your needs and preferences, including dispensing capacity, cooling system, Co2 bottle, design and budget.

Useful accessories

There are a number of accessories that can enhance your beer dispensing system and make the experience of drinking beer at home even more enjoyable. Here are some useful accessories for beer dispensers:

OneDrip trayA special glass tray on which excess beer is collected prevents the floor or counter from being soiled. Use special beer glasses to enhance the aroma and flavour of the beer.

Cleaning brushesUse special cleaning brushes to clean the pipes and hoses in your dispensing system.

Co2 bottlesare necessary to keep the beer pressurised. An additional Co2 bottle can be helpful to ensure that you always have enough Co2 available.

The choice of accessories depends on your needs and preferences. For example, if you frequently organise parties or larger events, a drip tray and additional Co2 bottles may be helpful. However, if you only use your dispenser occasionally, special beer glasses and cleaning brushes may be sufficient.
