Why Draft System Cleaning Is Essential for Every Bar, Restaurant & Brewery

According to the Brewers Association, draft beer systems must be cleaned every 14 days to maintain beer quality, protect equipment, and prevent costly contamination issues.

Keep Your Beer Fresh and Flavorful

Yeast, mold, and beer stone build up quickly inside draft lines. Without regular cleaning, they ruin flavor, kill carbonation, and destroy foam quality. Clean lines ensure every pour tastes exactly as the brewer intended.

Protect Your Investment and Equipment

Beer stone, sugar buildup, and microbial growth corrode stainless steel, clog faucets, and permanently bond inside beer lines when left too long. Once this happens, even the strongest cleaning methods can’t remove them. This buildup ruins FOB function and gums up couplers, causing leaks and costly failures. Routine professional cleanings prevent irreversible damage and protect your investment in taps and lines.

Maintain Consistent Pour Quality

Clean lines deliver steady flow, proper carbonation, and no foam waste. We inspect and calibrate every system for correct CO₂ and nitrogen regulation, so every pour meets your quality standards shift after shift, keg after keg.

What We Clean

Faucet Deep Cleaning

                     Recommended Quarterly

  • Remove the faucet from the draft tower using a faucet wrench.
  • Disassemble all parts (nozzle, shaft, lever, seat, washer, O-rings, and gaskets).
  • Soak components in an approved beer line cleaning solution for the recommended time.
  • Scrub thoroughly with small brushes to remove buildup, biofilm, and beer stone.
  • Rinse with clean water to remove all chemical residue.
  • Inspect parts for wear or damage; replace O-rings, washers, or seals as needed.
  • Reassemble the faucet carefully, ensuring a proper seal on all parts.
  • Reinstall on the draft tower and flush the system with fresh water or sanitizer before use.

Coupler Detail

                        Recommended Quarterly

  • Disconnect the coupler from the keg and draft line.
  • Scrub the exterior thoroughly with brushes and approved cleaning solution.
  • Scrub the interior probe to remove buildup and residue.
  • Lubricate O-rings to maintain smooth operation and prevent leaks.
  • Check all gaskets and seals for wear or damage; replace as needed.
  • Perform a leak test to confirm the coupler is operating correctly and smoothly before returning to service.

High Pressure Line Flushing

                           Recommended Bi-Weekly

  • Alkaline Flush (Bi-Weekly or Monthly): Breaks down organic buildup such as yeast, sugars, proteins, and biofilm.

  • Acid Flush (Quarterly): Targets beer stone, scale, and mineral deposits that alkaline cleaners can’t remove.

  • High-Pressure Pump Action: The pump forces solution through the lines at such a strong pressure that it creates vibration, shaking loose stubborn buildup from the interior walls of the tubing. This ensures a deep clean that soaking alone can’t achieve.

  • Final Rinse & Testing: Every line is flushed to neutral pH, then tested to guarantee smooth operation and a clean, crisp pour.

FOB Disassembly &  Deep Clean

                           Recommended Annually

  • Disconnect the FOB from the draft line and keg.

  • Disassemble accessible parts (float chamber, seals, O-rings, and fittings).

  • Soak all components in approved beer line cleaning solution to break down buildup and biofilm.

  • Scrub interior and exterior surfaces, including the float and chamber walls, with detail brushes.

  • Rinse thoroughly with clean water until pH neutral.

  • Inspect all gaskets, O-rings, and seals for wear; lubricate and replace if needed.

  • Reassemble the FOB carefully, ensuring the float moves freely.

  • Perform a leak and function test to confirm smooth operation before reconnecting.

How Our Draft Line Cleaning Process Works

STEP 1

System Walkthrough & Job Review

We start with a full walkthrough of the draft system, identifying the layout, coolers, towers, and components to be serviced. We review the job form to confirm the scope of work and note any visible issues before setting up equipment.

STEP 2

Equipment Setup & Pressure Testing

Our cleaning equipment is connected to the system and pressure tested to check for leaks and ensure safe operation. Once verified, the system is fully staged and ready for cleaning.

STEP 3

Initial Cold Water Flush

All beer and product are flushed from the lines using clean, cold water. This clears the system and prepares the lines for effective chemical cleaning.

STEP 4

High-Pressure Chemical Line Flush

Depending on the cleaning cycle required, an alkaline or acid beer line cleaner is circulated through each line using a high-pressure recirculating pump. Cleaner is run for a minimum of 15 minutes per line to effectively remove yeast, bacteria, biofilm, and beer stone buildup.

STEP 5

Component Cleaning & Final Rinse

Lines are thoroughly flushed again with clean, cold water until all cleaning solution is fully removed. Faucets, couplers, FOBs, and any selected components are disassembled, scrubbed, cleaned, and sanitized.

STEP 6

Final Inspection, Documentation & Reset

We perform a final system inspection, reconnect kegs, and verify clean pours. Pressures, temperatures, and system specs are documented, and any recommendations are noted. Work areas are cleaned, equipment is removed, and the system is left pouring clean and fully documented.

Signs Your Draft system Needs a Cleaning

vISIBLE pARTICLES or Off Flavors

Floating residue, haze, or unpleasant flavors are strong indicators of buildup inside the beer lines. Contaminants directly affect taste, aroma, and overall beer quality.

hEAVILY SOILED JUMPER LINES

Dirty or discolored jumper lines in the cooler signal internal buildup. This residue restricts flow, impacts flavor, and allows bacteria and yeast to thrive.

MOLD BUILD UP ON FAUCETS

Visible mold or buildup on faucets often means contamination inside the system. Faucets are the final contact point and a common source of odor and taste issues.

CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS

When customers say the beer tastes off, pours poorly, or isn’t consistent, the draft system is usually overdue for cleaning. Complaints are often the first sign of a problem.
