ABSTRACT:
A system for sanitizing beverage dispensing equipment includes a plurality of beverage sources such as kegs, each connected to a dispensing tap by means of a connecting conduit removably coupled to one of the sources and the tap. A manifold includes a plurality of flexible hoses attached thereto. Each of the hoses has a first end in fluid flow connection with the manifold body and a second end provided with a fitting adapted to be connected to one of the connecting conduits when it is disconnected from its beverage source. A source of solution for cleaning or sanitizing the taps and the connecting conduits is provided. A pump is connected by an inflow hose to the solution source and is connected to an outflow hose which has an output end with a fitting adapted to be connected in fluid flow communication to one of the connecting conduits when it disconnected from its beverage dispensing tap. Thus the cleaning solution can be circulated from the source through the one tap to the manifold and outward through the connecting conduits to the other taps. The taps are cleaned individually by successively opening each tap to permit outflow of sanitizing solution, which is preferably recovered in the source container and thus recycled through the system.
