Description
Draftec Red Dye Acid Beer Line Cleaner — 32 oz
Red Dye Acid Cleaner removes what alkaline cleaners can't: beerstone and mineral deposits that build up inside draft lines over time. If your lines look cloudy or beer tastes off despite regular alkaline cleaning, an acid cycle is what's needed. The red dye confirms the cleaner has reached every line and been fully flushed.
When to Use Acid Cleaner
Use every 4–6 months as part of a complete line cleaning program — alternating with your regular alkaline cleaner (Draftec Blue Dye):
- Weekly: Blue Dye alkaline cleaner — removes organic buildup (yeast, bacteria, mold)
- Every 4–6 months: Red Dye acid cleaner — removes mineral deposits and beerstone
This two-step rotation is the standard professional line cleaning protocol.
Why Red Dye
- Visual confirmation — red color shows cleaner is flowing through every line
- Removes beerstone — the mineral scale that alkaline cleaners leave behind
- Restores line clarity — breaks down calcium and mineral buildup
