Carlsberg Beer (Guangdong) Co., Ltd.
Carlsberg Beer (Guangdong) Co., Ltd.
Address: No. 28, Eling South Road, Huizhou City, Guangdong Province
Company Overview
DraughtMaster is a draft beer machine suitable for small catering venues launched by Carlsberg in the UK in 2017, claiming that this mobile small beer machine will bring "disruptive changes" to those places with medium and low beer sales. This draft beer machine named DraughtMaster is a 20-liter keg, made of PET plastic material instead of traditional stainless steel, which is more suitable for catering venues with small sales. The machine only needs clean water, power supply, drainage pipes and installation space. It has its own air compressor and does not require carbon dioxide, and can clean itself. Carlsberg said that in the 1950s, stainless steel beer kegs were introduced to all catering venues with high beer sales. But these places are now becoming more food-oriented, and beer consumption is no longer as large as stainless steel barrels. Therefore, investment in draft beer, especially PET plastic beer kegs. Carlsberg claims that this PET plastic draft beer keg has a longer storage time than previous stainless steel barrels. The shelf life of stainless steel barrels is usually only one week, while DraughtMaster can be kept fresh for up to 31 days. The reason is that stainless steel draft beer barrels need to be continuously injected with carbon dioxide to increase the pressure, while DraughtMaster can pour out beer with just air. The entire process from the beer leaving the brewery to entering the glass does not require contact with anything, which can ensure the quality of the beer for a longer period of time. Places that were previously limited by sales can now offer a range of different fresh draft beers.

Draft Beer Machine Information

What is a Draft Beer Machine

A Draft Beer Machine is a device used to dispense beer from a keg. It is designed to maintain the beer at an optimal temperature and pressure, ensuring a fresh and consistent pour. These machines are commonly used in bars, restaurants, and homes to serve draft beer.


History of Draft Beer Machines

The history of draft beer machines dates back to the early 20th century when the first keg systems were developed. Over the years, advancements in technology have led to more efficient and reliable designs. Modern draft beer machines are designed to be highly efficient, easy to use, and capable of maintaining consistent beer quality.


Purpose of Draft Beer Machines

The primary purpose of a Draft Beer Machine is to dispense beer from a keg while maintaining its quality and freshness. They are used in:

  • Bars and Restaurants: To serve fresh, cold beer to customers.
  • Home Use: For home enthusiasts who enjoy serving draft beer at parties or for personal consumption.


Principle of Draft Beer Machines

Draft Beer Machines operate based on the following principles:

  • Gas Pressure: Carbon dioxide (CO2) or a mixture of nitrogen and CO2 (beer gas) is used to push the beer from the keg through the beer line to the tap.
  • Temperature Control: The beer is kept cold using a refrigeration unit to prevent spoilage and maintain the ideal drinking temperature.
  • Dispensing: The beer is dispensed through a faucet, which is controlled by a tap handle.


Features of Draft Beer Machines

Draft Beer Machines come with several features that enhance their performance and efficiency:

  • Temperature Display: Some machines have LED indicators to show when the beer is at the ideal drinking temperature.
  • Child-Safe Tap Handle: The tap handle is easily removable for cleaning and child safety.
  • Hygienic Design: Each new keg comes with a new tube for a clean, hygienic pour.
  • Easy Keg Replacement: Front doors for easy keg replacement, allowing you to load a new keg of your favorite draft beer at any time.


Types of Draft Beer Machines

There are several types of Draft Beer Machines, each designed for specific applications:

  • Direct Draw System (Kegerator): The most common example of a direct draw draft system, suitable for short distances from keg to tap.
  • Glycol Cooled Draft System: Used for long draw systems where the keg is not close to the tap. A glycol chiller is used to maintain a consistent temperature.
  • Air Cooled Draft System: Used for shorter draw systems, using chilled air to maintain the beer's temperature.


Precautions for using Draft Beer Machines

When using Draft Beer Machines, it is important to follow these precautions:

  • Proper Installation: Ensure the machine is installed correctly to avoid leaks and ensure efficient operation.
  • Regular Maintenance: Clean and maintain the machine regularly to prevent contamination and ensure consistent results.
