THE SUB COMPACT

THE SUB COMPACT®: a system that cools, preserves and serves beer from THE TORP.

THE TORP®: a container with 2 litres of beer.

THE SUB COMPACT can only be used with THE TORP and vice versa.

IMPORTANT: To assure optimal performance of the appliance and good quality of beer: always leave THE SUB COMPACT switched on when THE TORP is inside.

If you switch THE SUB COMPACT off with THE TORP inside, it will not cool THE TORP anymore, neither will it keep THE TORP under pressure.

1 – PREPARING THE SUB COMPACT

INSTALLATION

THE SUB COMPACT should be used indoors at a room temperature of between 12^ C and 28^ C.

The original packaging has been designed to protect the appliance. We recommend that you keep it for future transport.

Take THE SUB COMPACT out of its packaging, along with the drip tray and the tap handle, and place them on a flat, dry surface that is clean and large enough (1-2).

Do not install THE SUB COMPACT near heat sources or in places that are directly exposed to sunlight.

Install the drip tray to the front of the appliance.

Plug THE SUB COMPACT into an appropriate socket (3). Check that the red temperature indicator lights up.

Tip: We recommend connecting THE SUB COMPACT to the power supply at least one hour before installing a TORP.

TEMPERATURE INDICATOR

Red: THE SUB COMPACT is connected to the power supply. The cooling process is in progress.

Green: the beer is at optimum temperature and ready to serve.

Please note: when the indicator light turns green, the appliance may not have reached its optimal temperature.

NOISE

THE SUB COMPACT is fitted with a cooling system that regulates the temperature of THE TORP. It is usual for this technology to generate some sound, particularly during the cooling phase.

THE SUB COMPACT is also fitted with a pump to keep THE TORP under pressure. During use, the pump will start up automatically, generating a sound that will stop after a few seconds.

2 - SERVING THE BEER

PREPARING THE TORP

IMPORTANT: before inserting a TORP into THE SUB COMPACT, check the Use By Date indicated on the side of THE TORP. Do not use THE TORP if it has passed this date.

To reduce the cooling time, we recommend storing THE TORP in the refrigerator for a few hours before use. See the instructions on THE TORP.

Tip: we recommend always keeping a spare TORP in the refrigerator. In this way, you will always have a chilled TORP available.

Do not store THE TORP at a temperature of more than 28^ C or at temperatures below zero, and do not expose it to direct sunlight. Do not shake or drop it.

COOLING THE TORP

For an optimum temperature, only serve the beer when the temperature indicator has changed to green.

In THE SUB COMPACT: cooling of the beer to a temperature of 2^ C inside THE SUB COMPACT takes around 12 hours if THE TORP and the appliance are at room temperature ( 22^ C).

In the refrigerator: this time may be reduced by several hours if THE TORP has been stored in the refrigerator the day before.

The temperature of the beer in THE TORP has a direct impact on the level of foam: the beer should be served sufficiently cold, when the temperature indicator is green.

IMPORTANT: never store a TORP in the freezer as this could cause leakage due to freezing of the beer.

INSTALLING THE TORP IN THE SUB COMPACT

Remove THE TORP cover (4). The tube is housed inside the cover; remove it. Place the tube connector in the opening of THE TORP until you hear a click. THE TORP (5) is now ready to use. You can place it in THE SUB COMPACT by following these steps (6):

• Open the appliance door completely (7-8).
• Remove the upper part of the dispensing head (9).
• Replace the upper part of the dispensing head (11).
• Re-close the door of THE SUB COMPACT (12).

- Insert THE TORP into the refrigeration chamber by exerting pressure on the rear part in order to insert the front part. Thread the tap tube and insert the pouring end of the tube in the service tap (10).

THE TORP is correctly installed, the temperature indicator is red marking the start of the cooling phase. When it is green, the beer is ready to be served (13).

Upon installation of THE TORP, THE SUB COMPACT verifies the pressure inside THE TORP and activates the pump each time the pressure is insufficient.

IMPORTANT: do not unload a TORP until it is completely empty. A TORP that has been unloaded from THE SUB COMPACT is depressurized. Therefore, the beer quality is no longer guaranteed.

PREPARING THE GLASS

To pour the perfect beer, it is essential to use a clean cold glass. Rinse your glass in fresh, cold water before serving the beer.

This prevents the liquid warming up in the glass as well as the formation of too much foam. We recommend you use the special glasses available at www.the-sub.com.

SERVING THE BEER

• Incline your glass at an angle of 45^ with respect to the tap.
• Pull the handle quickly forward as far as it will go. Then gradually straighten the glass as it fills (14-15-16).

When broaching a TORP, there is more foam in the first glass than in the following glasses. To limit the formation of foam in the first glass, we recommend pouring 2 centimeters of foam, then clean this glass and restart pouring the beer.

For the other glasses, hold the tap handle in forward position until the glass is filled.

IMPORTANT: If you pull the handle too slowly you will generate extra foam.

You can consult all the information about serving the perfect beer at www.the-sub.com.

3 - CLEANING

CLEANING AFTER DAILY USE

Clean the drip tray after each use.

Note: The drip tray (I) can be washed with hot water and a mild detergent (17) and must not be washed in the dishwasher.

Warning! Never use harsh detergents, such as vinegar, acids, solvents or petrol.

CLEANING DURING INSTALLATION OF A NEW TORP

Clean away all traces of beer that have built up on the tap.

The tap mechanism should be cleaned with a damp cloth and some mild detergent (18).

Remove the empty TORP from the refrigeration chamber by pressing on the front part to remove the rear part (19).

Warning! Do not attempt to clean the mechanism with hard and/or sharp objects.

Clean the cooling chamber of THE SUB COMPACT using a soft dry cloth (20).
