Why the CO₂ pressure needs to be higher with a Lindr beertap?

There is a lot going on about adjusting CO₂ pressure for a beertap installation, also a lot of myths. From clients of us we receive the question a lot about adjusting the CO₂ pressure for a beertap installation and what the right pressure should be. The right CO₂ pressure for your beertap installation is depending on several factors like the sort beerrtap / beertap installation that you are using, but also the diameters of the tubes and cooling coils that are used with your beertap. Other factors are the type of beer that you aare going to pour and ambient temperature.

In this article we mainly focus on Lindr beertaps and beertap installations with the standard compensator taps that are used by default on a Lindr beertap / beertap installation. All of the Lindr beertaps and beercoolers are prepared for 3/8" tubes (9,5mm) and have 8mm (outside diameter) cooling coils

Beertaps with inbuild air compressor, great in diversity

Lindr has in their assortment of beertap drycoolers also beertaps with an inbuild air compressor. The beertaps with the inbuild air compressor can be recognised by the /K in their model name, for example Lindr Pygmy 25/K, Kontakt 40/K, Kontakt 70/K. The Lindr drycooler beertaps with inbuild air compressor are very popular. You will see these beertaps a lot at beerfestivals, but also renting companies use these taps a lot.

In many cases you see keykeg kegs that are connected to these taps, as keykeg is a bag in keg system. By using keykeg kegs the oxygen from the ambient air can't get in contact with the beverage which results in a longer shelf life of the beverage. But you can also connect standard

Several dispense taps for beertaps

When you are looking for a dispense tap for your beertap or dispense tower than you have several kinds of dispense taps. In this blog we will explain the several models to help you choose the right tap for your beertap or dispense tower. First of all you have the option of the finishing of the tap which is chrome plated, PVD plated or stainless steel. After choosing the right finishing of the tap you have the option for a compensator tap or a free flow tap. Taps without a compensator are also known as free flow taps, these taps work the same as a ball-valve. These taps can stay open when pouring your beer so you can pour more beers quickly after each other. Most common size for the threaded screwing of the tap is 5/8" outerthread. Rarely you will see taps with a 1/2" outerthread screwing but that is not common.

The Daivd tapsystem is a small mobile bar with a keg cooler and dispense tower at the top of the keg cooler. It is a very practical dispensing system specially for events and parties. In the dispense tower there is a thin transit tube which can be easily replaced after connecting a new keg to the David tapsystem. Due to its uniqueness to replace the transit tube together when connecting a new keg, you don't need to clean the beer tubes from the David tapsystem. At the end of the transit tube there is a small sort of dispense head S-type which makes that you can only connect S-type kegs to the David tapsystem and normally you should only be able to pour beers like Heineken, Amstel and Brand.
