Drink Modul
All-in-one
draught beer dispensing unit!
No perfectly pulled beer is complete without the correct cleaning and hygiene for glasses and pumps. That’s why our technical service specialists have developed a fully comprehensive dispensing and hygiene system known as DRINK MODUL. The DRINK MODUL beer dispenser system offers sophisticated technology and carefully coordinated functionality for the entire beer dispensing process – including storage technology and a billing system. Of course, on request we can also hook up existing devices and billing infrastructure to the new system.
A beer dispensing system that grows to meet every challenge
DRINK MODULE enables you relax as you look toward the future: This system fits perfectly with the size of your operation, and grows with your success. Whenever you need, there’s the opportunity to hook up other devices to the system, such as a coffee machine or a schnapps board, via an interface box. We work hard for your success with regular software updates and ongoing product innovation.

Open the flow regulator. - Is the keg empty?
Tap a new keg. - Is the CO2/dispensing gas tank empty?
Connect a new CO2/dispensing gas tank. - Is the keg coupler not engaged?
Check the position of the keg coupler. - Is the shut-off valve of the CO2/dispensing gas tank closed?
Open the shut-off valve. - Is the CO2/dispensing gas tank connected?
Open the CO2/dispensing gas tank. - Are the valves on the keg coupler or the tap blocked?

Tips
Care & Hygiene
Glass care
- Attention: Foam is destroyed by grease, kitchen fumes, smoke, dust, and incorrect detergent dosing; use the appropriate detergent (household dishwashers are beer killers!)
- Maintain the glass washer regularly
- Use the glass washer for glasses only!
- Change the water at least once a day
- Air dry the glasses; do not polish them dry
- Do not store glasses near the kitchen
Dispensing
- The shorter the beer line, the better
- Rinse all lines with water daily
- Keep the drip cup clean
- Use a glass rinser
- Clean the dispensing equipment daily with lukewarm water!
- The tap book must always be accessible (new regulation)
