Beer taps and chilled beverage taps
At Install Beer we have a wide selection of taps: classic taps, modern beer taps, and even unique beer taps. If you already have a specific type of beer tap in mind, or if you prefer a tap for wine, you can browse our beer tap section on installbeer.com and we’ll ship it to you. If, on the other hand, you’re still not sure which type of tap you need or you can’t find what you’re looking for, don’t worry, you can email us at info@installbeer.com and we’ll do our best to help you find what you need among all the different types of beer taps we offer.
If you’re thinking about having your own beer tap at home, you’re in the right place. More and more beer lovers are choosing to have draft beer taps in their garden, kitchen, or anywhere else. To get it working you only need a power outlet to plug in the cooler and that’s it, but good advice is always important—both for choosing the type of beer tap that best suits what you’re looking for and for its installation and setup. At Install Beer we have more than 20 years of experience in installing and selling beer dispensing equipment, so we’re confident we’ll find the tap that best suits your needs.
Installbeer was founded in 1996 with the aim of providing service to all hospitality professionals who needed specialized technical support for their beer systems. Since then, we’ve completed hundreds of installations and have thousands of satisfied customers. If you’re looking for a beer tap for your bar, no matter what type of installation you have in mind, don’t hesitate to contact us—we’re sure we can resolve all those questions that usually come up before installation.
If you’re looking for a portable beer tap, here you’ll find a great selection. A portable unit is perfect for events, parties, or for having at home; you’ll only need a power outlet to plug it in and within a few minutes you’ll be able to pour your first beer. Within our range of portable coolers you can find units with more or less power, with 1 or 2 taps, and with or without an air compressor. If the kegs you’re going to buy or already have are bag-in-keg types like KeyKeg, we recommend that you buy a portable cooler with an air compressor. On the other hand, if you use non-bag kegs such as stainless steel kegs, you’ll need CO2, so it’s not necessary to buy the portable tap with compressor.
This type of tap has a temperature controller that lets you set the temperature at which you want the beer to be served, but keep in mind that these taps do not have an ice reserve like bar coolers, so the amount of beer you can serve in one go is limited.
Another important tip is not to leave beer inside with the cooler switched off. Besides being unhygienic, you probably won’t be able to open the tap because the beer inside will have caused the tap to seize up. We recommend visiting our blog section where we explain how to clean with a cleaning keg and also visiting our cleaning section.
The main difference from a beer tap is that it must be 100% stainless steel, since the composition of wine damages other metals such as brass. Here you can find the stainless steel taps we offer.
If you want to install a beer tap at home and don’t know what to do or where to start, we recommend that you contact us so we can advise you and help you through the process.

Our beer tap installers have extensive experience in the installation and maintenance of beverage taps.
As with any hospitality equipment, maintenance and care are essential for proper operation and to minimize costs. If you have any issues with your system, such as a beer leak, gas leak, excessive foam, line cleaning, etc., don’t hesitate to contact us to resolve the issue.
If you need to repair the beer cooler or any other component, consult us and we will analyze it to identify the problem and find a solution.
The cleaning kit is a key product for maintaining beer equipment. The kit includes a cleaning keg for the chemical product, 5 sachets of chemical cleaner, a tap cleaning brush, and a brush for cleaning the keg coupler.

Preguntas Frecuentes
The beer tap is very simple to use, as you just have to open or close the lever where the handle is to let the beer flow or stop it. The main difference you may find between beer taps is the flow control (compensator), which lets more or less beer through, since some taps have a compensator and others do not.
The gas used for beer is CO2, whether it’s for a bar or a beer tap at home. Air can also be used, but only for kegs with an inner bag, such as KeyKeg.
Installing a beer tap can be simple if you are replacing it with another identical one. The important thing is to know the thread size of the tower and whether the beer line has the same diameter as the tap’s quick connector. If you have any doubts, just ask us whether the tap you want to buy is compatible with your setup.
