As for the European standard stainless steel beer barrel, it is a container designed and manufactured in strict accordance with European standards. With its excellent sealing, durability and food safety, it has become the core packaging scheme in the global beer and beverage industry, from production, storage to transportation and sales.
Its core parameters and advantages are embodied in these aspects:
Material: SUS304 (or German standard 1.4301) food-grade stainless steel is used as the main body. This material is corrosion-resistant, not easy to rust, and will not react chemically with liquor, which can maintain the original flavor of beer for a long time. SUS316 stainless steel can be selected for some high-end models, which has better corrosion resistance due to the addition of molybdenum.
Production technology: the whole body is made by three processes: deep drawing+precision welding+surface passivation. Some high-end manufacturers will also adopt hot forging process for the Neck, which is integrally formed from solid stainless steel bars, completely avoiding welding, thus eliminating potential leakage points and pollution sources.
Application field: in the field of beer brewing in stainless steel, it is used for fermentation, aging and storage; In bars and restaurants, as the core of the Draft Beer System, it is used for preservation and supply; In addition, it is also used in large-scale activities and international trade that require long-distance transportation.
In addition, European standard barrels and German standard barrels are two different specifications, and the main difference lies in their “length-to-fat ratio”. Euro Keg is short and fat; The DIN Keg is taller and thinner.
