Summary: SIZE OF Heineken DraughtKeg
Comment: CAN SOMEBODY INFORM ME WHAT SIZE SHOULD BE THE HEINEKEN DRAUGHTKEG????
I DON'T SEE IT IN THE DESCRIPTION.

I LIVE IN ITALY AND BEFORE PURCHASING THIS ITEM, I WANT TO VERIFY IF THE RIGHT SIZE DRAUGHTKEG ARE SOLD HERE!!! OTHERWISE IT WOULD BE A BIG WASTE OF MONEY.

WE HAVE THE 5 LITERS ONE, BUT THEY ARE PROBABLY TOO BIG.

Summary: Nothing like real "Tap Beer"
Comment: I have had my BeerTender for 2 months and love pouring a tall cool one into a frosted beer glass. It is easy to set up and even easier to use. Be careful when unpacking that you don't throw away the chrome spout by accident. I almost missed it in the bottom of the box. I set the tempature at 36 degrees (choices are 36, 39,42) and it holds that tempature perfectly. Be sure to rinse the frozen glass just before pouring; then tilt to a 45 degree angle and you will get a perfect three quarter inch head. Enjoy.....I certainly do.

Summary: Foam drowns the novelty
Comment: No matter what you do, there is half a glass of thick foam. No matter what you do, the fill indicator constantly blinks. All solutions tried and exhausted. Cold beer though (underneath the foam).

Summary: Very disappointed..controls don't work properly!!!
Comment: I have had my Beetender for about 6 weeks and had to return it 3 times !!! The volume control starts blinking after only 1 8 oz glass...very annoying. The temperature guage only works for a few days before it shows no temperature. I love Heineken and the dispenser is a cool item if the controls only worked properly. On the last one, the control indicator didn't work at all! Oh, by the way, I called Krups Customer Service and they were no help only suggesting I return it for a new unit...which I did twice. Also, emailed Krups 2 weeks ago and am still waiting for a response! I guess I'll go back to bottles.

Summary: Outstanding Product !
Comment: I purchased the Beertender B95 serveral months ago and love it, if your a beer lover and love Heineken I strongly suggest you buy this product. At first I had the same problems with foam that many buyers here had but if you go to the Heineken Beertender website they say the first glass will always be foamy due to air in the keg (this was true with just the keg and pourer as well) but the second glass should be fine IF you first rinse the glass and then pour at a 45 degree angle. I don't know why the wet glass works but it does, without a wet glass you may get foam for the first 3 or 4 glasses, try it and you'll become a believer. Buy this product, no home should be without one. In closing, I purchased the Sam Adams Draught Lager glasses and they work perfect with the Beertender and give a richy foamy head and constant airation throughout the entire drink due to laser etching and the shape of the glass, a set of 4 was around $30 and they can be found probably here at Amazon or through the Sam Adams website or BevMo stores.
