Yes. Always. Stop on by the shop and leave with a keg pump, or click here to pay the rental deposit in advance of your required date.

Put the side of a freshly rinsed glass directly under the faucet spout, tilted at 45 degrees, and pull the tap FULLY OPEN with a quick, confident pull. Carefully begin to turn the glass upright when it reaches about 3/4 full. Your goal is to avoid agitating the beer any more than necessary as it pours.

Common mistakes we see: Holding the glass too straight or too far from the faucet, Pouring with the faucet partially closed, Using an un-rinsed glass, Pouring unsteadily, or otherwise disturbing the glass too much as it fills.

Foamy beer troubles can stem from a variety of factors, sometimes in combination. Issues usually arise from temperature problems anywhere between the keg and tap, incorrect gas pressures, or sometimes leaks in the seals of your system.

To keep it simple, draft beer pours best when it is chilled in the 2–4°C range, and kept that way on its journey between the keg and faucet, in order to maintain a crisp clear pour.

This can become trickier in systems where the beer has a long way to go. If your bar has beer lines that run out of your keg cooler to reach your taps, you may require an insulated trunk line, which is used to insulate the lines and help keep the beer chilled as it travels out of the cooler, or sits in the lines in the walls while its not pouring.

Nearly anything you like. Refillable Cornelius kegs are available that utilize an easy to open hermetic seal lid and allow you to fill it and refill it with nearly any drink you like. We see these used to put cocktails like Caesars, Mojitos and Old Fashioned on tap in bars and restaurants regularly, and they are perfect for home use as well.

Wines can be put on tap using practically all the same equipment, and keep longer on tap than in an open bottle in your fridge.

Regular beer line cleaning is crucial for maintaining the quality and taste of your brews. Without proper cleaning, yeasts and bacteria can build up in the lines, affecting the aroma and flavor of your beer. Besides that, the growth of yeast in beer lines releases carbon dioxide, leading to issues that result in beer wastage and decreased profits.

Additionally, “Beerstone” can accumulate in hoses, FOBs and Faucets, Beerstone is a grayish-brown precipitate composed of Calcium Oxalate (CaC2O4) and other organic substances forming on the inside surfaces of brewing equipment, causing wear on system components and affecting the flow and taste of your beverages.

In some States beer line cleaning is required by law every 14 days. Canada has no requirements for beer line cleaning, but we suggest a regular monthly schedule for our customers.

A kegerator is a compact, refrigerated unit perfect for home or small-scale use, typically using a direct-draw setup where the keg sits inside and beer flows straight to a single or multi-tap tower. At Beer Worx, we love how modular and versatile kegerators are—you can swap gas regulators, couplers, and tap numbers, even putting coffee, kombucha, or cocktails on tap! A full draft beer system, on the other hand, often means a long-draw setup, where kegs are stored remotely (like in a cooler) and beer travels through extended lines to custom taps—ideal for bars or big events. Both are awesome options, and we’re passionate about crafting either for you. Need help deciding? Swing by our Calgary showroom or call us!
