Thorough, scheduled line cleaning using industry-standard procedures. Keep every pour tasting as the brewer intended.
Dirty draft lines are the leading cause of off-flavored beer and unhappy customers. Yeast, bacteria, mold, and beer stone build up over time — and the effects show up in the glass before you see them anywhere else. 101 Draft Works provides thorough, scheduled line cleaning using food-safe chemical solutions and industry-standard procedures.
Every cleaning visit, we follow the Brewers Association guidelines. We schedule around your business hours, document every cleaning with a timestamped service log, and keep you on a program so nothing falls through the cracks. Cleaning frequency depends on your system and your pour volume — we'll help you find a cadence that keeps your beer tasting right without over-servicing.
We connect our cleaning setup and push beer out of the lines, preparing for the chemical cleaning cycle.
Alkaline solution is recirculated through lines to break down beer stone, yeast, and bacterial buildup.
An acid rinse follows to neutralize alkalinity and remove mineral deposits from the line walls.
Lines are sanitized, couplers and faucets are reassembled, and the system is pressure-checked before you serve.
