FIRST RINSE
Before you start your rst brew, run a quick rinse cycle using an empty
bucket, your keg, and the cleaning wand. You may notice the keg running
empty, which can cause the ow from the nozzle to look erratic. This is
normal—pulling air through the machine aids in removing buildup.
Step Filter set-up:
1. Ensure that the Step Filter Plug is securely in place.
2. Place the Bottom Mash Screen into the mash compartment so
that it rests on the bottom ledge of the Step Filter. This is the false
bottom that the grain will sit on.
3. Place the Adjunct Screen on the other side of the Step Filter (the
Adjunct Compartment), also resting on the bottom ledge.
4. Place the Top Mash Screen on the top ledge of the Step Filter.
5. Insert the Drain Tube and Drain Tube Grommet into the Step Filter
Lid as shown in the ‘Assembling the Step Filter’ illustration above.
6. Place the Step Filter Lid on top of the Step Filter, ensuring that the
holes are aligned correctly.
7. Slide Step Filter into Z. There should be a little resistance as the
drain slides into place and the Step Filter presses against the back
of the Z. Ensure that both the left and right sides of the Step Filter
are pushed in completely.
Rinse set-up:
1. Fill your keg with approximately 2 gallons of clean, hot tap water.
Place the keg either on the oor or on the counter next to your Z.
2. Connect the BLACK Ball Lock to the keg post labeled OUT. Lift the
outer ring of the Ball Lock, place it on the appropriate keg post, let
go of the outer ring and press down rmly. The Ball Lock will click
when it ts into place.
3. In the same manner, attach a Cleaning Tube to the GRAY Ball Lock.
Allow the gray hose to sit in an empty bucket.
4. Power on your Z. From the main menu, select Ultilities, then
select Rinse by clicking the Control Knob. Follow the on-screen
instructions.
