corni and line hygiene?

Post by leedsbrew » Tue Oct 27, 2009 11:55 pm

Just started using corni's with a pub gas setup. Wondering what kind of cleaning regime you all use. how often do I need to be cleaning the beer line and tap while I've got beer in the keg?

Cheers chaps

This probably goes way beyond the accepted norm but I run my beer from cornie to tap via a flash chiller and there is usually a pint a day drawn off at least and being lazy I've left it a couple of weeks and longer between flushing it! Probably not good and it took some cleaning when I decided to try dispensing soda water via the chiller but I've not noticed any difference in the taste of the beer when I re-tapped it after the clean. I just know it's wrong and it goes against everything that I've learned so either my tastebuds are shot or you can get away with it. :)
