SETUP STEPS
NOTE: Some type of water ltration device must be used to maintain trouble-free operation.
In areas with extremely hard water, we suggest that a sedimentary, taste and odor lter be
installed. This will prolong the life of your brewing system and enhance tea quality.
1. Locate the brewer on a secure surface. Level it left to right and
front to back by rotating the feet on the 4 corners.
2. Connect a water line from the water lter to the brewer.
Plumb water lines. A 1/2” hose barb has been supplied for water
line connections. See page 3 for location.
Use tubing sized sufcient to provide a minimum of 3.0 gpm for the ambient INLET WATER
(2 places) and CHILLED WATER connections.
3. Connect the CO
2
or compressed air line.
4. Connect the brewer to an electrical outlet with the appropriate
amperage rating (see serial tag on brewer).
