 Beer extractor May 28, 2008

I don't know if it was the extractor or the keg of Heinekin...This also was the first time I had used the keg...The beer came out so foamy that I would have to wait 5 minutes for it to go down so I could finish filling up my "stein"....This really killed the experience, to the point that I am no longer interested in purchasing the Heinekin kegs...However, it did solve my problem of purchasing a keg with no pump. / LA
 Reusable If You're Careful September 28, 2008

The BeerTender recommends using a new tube for each mini-keg, and at about a dollar each that's not a big deal. However, if you have run out of tubes, or just want to be thrify, they can easily be reused at least a couple times. Here's how:
o Put the empty mini-keg in a sink.
o With the tube's spout pointing toward the drain, push the two white barrel fittings together. This manually operates the tap to relieve pressure in the mini-keg.
o Wait a few seconds for all the foam to drain out.
o Use a screwdriver or butter knife to remove the top part of the tap. There are three tabs on this gray cover piece; pry back one or two to lift it off.
o Remove the part still attached to the mini-keg by pushing back the tabs holding it to the top of the keg. Use a screwdriver or butter knife on the inside part of the tap - accessible with the cover removed - to release these tabs.
o Thoroughly rinse the tap, tube, and spout. With the barrel connectors still pushed together, run a stream of water into the spout and it should drain through the tube and out the small holes in the tap.
o Snap the cover piece back onto the tap with the larger hose cut-out aligned with the tube.
o Pull the barrel connectors apart to manually close the tap to make it ready it for the next mini-keg. Be sure the whole thing is very clean, especially if not using immediately.
I've used one tap three or four times, and it still works fine (no leaks, similar pour). I suspect they recommend using a new one every time because it can be messy removing it from the mini-key and the potential for it to get moldy if not cleaned.
Don't forget the part about relieving the residual pressure, or you will probably have a beer geyser when the gray cover is removed.

My beertender tubes arrived quickly. Before my Beertender which still hasn't arrived. I am completely satisfied with the quality of the product and the speedy delivery. I would recommend using Amazon.com for your Beertender needs!

I love the BeerTender and it was great to be able to order a bunch of the tubes in advance since it is so hard to find them at stores. If you have bought the mini-kegs in the past and have enjoyed them, then you should think about getting the BeerTender and order some tubes in advance. It can be very sad having a nice, cold mini-keg in your BeerTender and no tubes for dispensing!
The Good, the Bad, and the BeerTender July 16, 2008

We love the Heineken BeerTender (having cold draft beer in the house is great!), and though you must have the BeerTender Tubes in order for it to work, there is frequently a problem with them. Sometimes the spout end of the tube doesn't allow the spigot top to shut properly, so we have to wiggle it around and play with it for a lot longer than seems right to get it to shut. When they slide right in, it's a wonderful thing, but about 75% of the time, this problem arises.
Other than that, Amazon got them delivered in short order, so Amazon gets five stars!
