A single tap kegerator chills a keg and pours it through one font, so you can put beer on tap without a cellar. A 1 tap kegerator suits a small bar, a club corner, a function room or a single house beer. A kegerator 1 tap unit is the simplest way into tap beer: one keg, one line, one font.

You will also see it called a one tap kegerator, a single kegerator, a single tap keg fridge or a 1 tap beer keg dispenser. If you need to pour two beers at once, look at the 2 tap models, and see every option in commercial beer keg dispensers.

These are the top FAQs for 1 Tap Beer Keg Dispenser

How many kegs does a single tap unit hold?

The tap count and the keg count are separate things. A one-tap unit pours a single beer, but the cabinet may take more than one keg depending on the model, so check the listing for keg sizes it accepts.

Where you want a second keg chilled and ready to swap in, a dual keg beer dispenser holds two kegs in one cabinet. For two different beers pouring at the same time, you want the tap count as well, so compare the 2 tap models.

What do I need besides the dispenser to pour beer?

A gas cylinder and regulator, the right coupler for your keg type, and a line and font that match. Most units ship configured for common Australian keg fittings, but confirm the coupler on the product page.

Glassware matters too; our beer glasses range covers the standard pour sizes.

Can a single tap keg fridge sit under a bar?

Some models are built to sit under a counter and some are freestanding with the font on top. Default to a freestanding unit unless the cabinet is specified for built-in use, because a built-in needs ventilation designed in.

For bottled and canned stock under the same bar, commercial bar fridges are the companion piece.

Why is my beer pouring all foam?

Usually temperature, gas pressure or line length, in that order. A keg that is too warm foams, as does pressure set above what the beer needs. Let a freshly delivered keg settle and chill before you tap it.

Glass temperature also matters at the pour, which is what a glass chiller is for.

How do I clean the beer line?

Flush the line on a regular cycle with a purpose-made line cleaner, then rinse with clean water until it runs clear. Pull and soak the coupler and the tap spout at the same time.

Line cleaners sit with our bar cleaning supplies.

Is one tap enough for a small venue?

It is, if your tap beer is one house lager and the rest of the list is packaged. The moment you want a second style on tap you are swapping kegs mid-service, which is when people regret buying one tap.

Think about where the venue will be in a year before choosing between this and a 2 tap keg dispenser.

What else does a small bar need alongside it?

Ice, glass washing and somewhere to put the glasses. A commercial ice machine, a glasswasher and glass racks are the usual three.

Cocktails off the same bar need cocktail equipment.
