is not displaying the correct
keg levels, you may need to
re-set the load monitor.
2. Plug the power cord in and switch
your BrewArt BrewFlo on.
3. Use the button to set your
BrewFlo to standby mode
(Power is on but LCD is o).
4. Place an empty keg plus the cap
and collar in your BrewFlo (no need
to connect air and beer lines).
5. Hold and arrows
simultaneously for approximately 3
seconds, until your BrewFlo beeps.
6. The load monitor will be re-set
to empty, taking into account the
