Hi all, I'm wondering if anyone has any tips on QA/QC procedures for draft product? I've tried plating samples before but between the Sanke tap, hose and picnic faucet I just don't have much confidence in the results. Of the breweries I have talked to, most simply do some sensory testing and let it go at that. Most of those guys have automated kegging lines and stainless kegs though. We are using a mix of plastic (PKA) and stainless kegs with a 3 tap keg washer and a hose octopus coming off the brite.
Recently our keg washer malfunctioned leading to an unknown number of kegs not being washed or sanitized before being filled. We are working up a set of procedures for verifying that the machine is working properly throughout a keg washing "session" as well as keeping better track of the preventative maintenance on the washer. I'm just wondering if anyone else has any additional ideas we could implement. Thanks in advance!
