Frequently Asked Questions - BRIG-3 Micro Matic
How do I clean the BRIG-3 beer tap?
Disassemble the tap by removing the handle and bonnet. Rinse all parts with warm water and a mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners to protect the chrome finish. Allow parts to air dry before reassembling.
What is the recommended pressure for serving beer?
The ideal serving pressure is between 10 and 14 psi depending on the beer style and line length. Adjust the regulator to achieve a balanced pour with proper carbonation.
How do I install the BRIG-3 on my draft system?
Screw the tap onto a standard 5/8"-18 threaded shank and tighten with a wrench. Connect your beer line to the 1/4" barb and secure it with a hose clamp. Test for leaks before serving.
What replacement parts should I keep on hand?
Keep spare O-rings, springs, and gaskets for routine maintenance. These wear out over time and are available from Micro Matic distributors.
How can I stop a leak from the spout?
A leaking spout usually indicates a worn seal or O-ring. Disassemble the tap, inspect the rubber parts, and replace any damaged ones. Reassemble and tighten the bonnet securely.
Is the BRIG-3 compatible with nitro or stout beers?
Yes, the forward-seal design handles nitro and stout beers effectively. Use a nitrogen regulator and appropriate gas blend for best results.
What size shank does the BRIG-3 fit?
The BRIG-3 fits standard 5/8"-18 shanks commonly used in home and commercial draft systems. Check your existing tower shank thread compatibility.
How often should I lubricate the O-rings?
Lubricate the O-rings with food-grade lubricant every 1-2 months or whenever the tap feels stiff. Regular lubrication prevents sticking and extends seal life.
Can I use the BRIG-3 with a home kegerator?
Absolutely. The BRIG-3 is designed for standard draft systems and works well with home kegerators. Ensure your tower has the correct shank size and beer line connections.
Why does the tap stick or feel stiff?
Stiffness is often caused by dried beer residue or lack of lubrication. Disassemble, clean thoroughly, and apply a thin layer of food-grade lubricant to the moving parts.
