Draft Beer Equipment

Beers are different, and draft beer is all the more diverse than bottled beers. Aside from the way you serve it, which is directly from casks, kegs or possibly a pressurized fermenter, a draft beer should be fresh, cold and carbonated. When you are out at a restaurant or bar, you often see beer poured from different types of taps, and you too can use similar draft beer dispensers in your own home. So... when your next batch of homebrew is ready, consider kegging and setting up your own draft beer dispensing system.

The word 'draft beer' originates from the English word 'draught' which means to 'pull' something from a container using a pump. Draft beer is not pasteurized; thus, the keg needs to be kept cold but not frozen; this gives the beer its rich, thick flavour.

It is crucial to use a draft system to create an exceptional draft beer and maintain its quality. Otherwise, you will end up having a flat beer, foaming or sour to boot. Kegged beer must be maintained and served it at cellar temperature of at the most 12 degrees Celsius to keep the yeast from reproducing, which can turn the beer sour.
