for instructional videos.
Your TrailKeg comes out of the box with the diptube
installed and a Perfect Pour restrictor attached. The
Perfect Pour restrictor slows down the flow rate of the
beer to help reach a balanced pour, while the keg is at
the proper storage pressure for the beer.
Pro Tip: You can remove the Perfect Pour restrictor to
increase the flow rate by simply pulling it off the end of
the dip tube.
Visit your favorite local brewery and fill your TrailKeg
with fresh from the tap beer.
Before You Start
Pro Tip: Request that the bartender use a fill tube
so there is less foam after the fill.
Pro Tip: Install the TrailKeg lid, not the plastic lid
after filling. That way you don’t have to open the
growler again when you get to your destination.
The plastic lid is best for drinks like coffee or water
that are not carbonated.
Screw the lid onto the growler until it is tight.
Connect the tap to the ball lock post.
Pro Tip: Transport your TrailKeg without the tap and
regulator connected.
Turn the regulator counterclockwise to the
OFF position. Screw a CO2 cartridge onto the

regulator. Attach the cartridge as quickly as possible
to prevent CO2 leakage.
Turn the regulator adjustment knob until the
pressure gauge reaches 3-5 PSI. Pour your first
glass. Adjust the regulator as necessary to reach the
desired serving pressure.
Pro Tip: When storing, set your TrailKeg at the
desired pressure, then disconnect the regulator.
Pro Tip: When the keg has just been filled or
transported, the beer will need to settle for at least
an hour, or you may notice more foam than usual.
Pro Tip: Always open the tap completely for the
best pour.
Note: The regulator can be disconnected from the
TrailKeg and there will be no pressure loss in either
the keg, or the cartridge.
When you are finished pouring a beer, return the
keg to your desired storage pressure. Depending on
the beer, optimal storage pressures can range from
9 PSI to 15 PSI.
If a beer is not as carbonated as you would like,
store it at a higher pressure overnight to allow
additional CO2 to dissolve into the beer.
If you are getting too much foam on a pour, try
dispensing at a lower pressure (2 to 3 PSI), or store
at a lower pressure overnight.

After every use thoroughly rinse your TrailKeg with
warm clean water.
Disconnect the regulator from the lid and remove
the lid from the growler.
Connect the tap to the lid, open the tap and run
warm water through the dip tube and tap.
Allow all components to dry.
Pro Tip: Storing the keg upside down with the lid
removed and the lid components in open air will keep
your TrailKeg fresh by preventing off odors from
collecting in the keg while sealed.
