One big complaint with mini kegs, as they have gained popularity, is the amount of foam you get with each pour. When you read reviews of min beer dispensers on Amazon, they are plagued with this very complaint. In this post I hope to clarify the process of pouring beer from a mini keg to reduce excess foam.
Step 1. Chill the beer
This is the most important step, warm beer = foamy beer. You don’t want to buy a keg the same night you plan to drink it. Buy it the day before and store it in the fridge or your mini keg dispenser and chill for 10-12 hours.
Step 2. To clean it
Make sure the glass you’re using is nice and clean. You don’t want any residue or particles in your beer to interrupt the pour or taste of your beer.
Step 3. For angled
When you prepare to pour the beer, align the glass at a little more than a 45-degree angle. Tipping the glass reduces agitation which will create more foam.
Step 4. To make it smooth
Pull the faucet in a smooth, slow motion. Aim the initial so that it reaches the center of the glass and flows into the bottom of the glass. As the beer is poured, continue to tilt the glass until it is almost perpendicular to the keg, then move the angle back up as the beer fills.
Step 5. Enjoy your fresh draft beer
Once you have your glass filled with a nice clean pour and about 1-1 ½” of foam on top, it’s time for that first sip. Skim any excess foam off the top and throw it back. Tastes good, No?
So now you have your simple guidelines for pouring the perfect glass from your Heineken mini keg while reducing unwanted foam.
