MIXING VALVE ADJUSTMENT
For customers who wish to adjust the flavor of the drink, the mixing valve changes the water to
concentrate ratio. This valve is very sensitive. Only slight rotation of the mixing rod is needed
to change the ratio (1/16th to 1/8th of a turn). The standard setup, as the unit comes from the
factory, is approximately 7:1 ratio, which will give you a 5 to 8 percent brix based on the sweet
tea concentrate.
1. To adjust the valve, tilt the dispenser on it’s side.
2. Look underneath the unit and locate the adjusting rod.
3. Turn counter-clockwise for stronger drink – turn clockwise for weaker drink. Taste the tea
with each adjustment to determine the desired consistency.
CAUTION – Do not rotate adjusting rod more than 2 full turns from closed position. More turns will cause the
adjustment rod to disengage from the mixing valve, with a resulting leak.
TEA TIPS
1. Never hold finished dispensed tea for more than eight hours at room temperature.
Discard any unused tea after eight hours
2. Dispense only enough tea that you reasonably expect to sell within a few hours.
3. To protect tea flavor and to avoid bacterial contamination and growth, clean and
sanitize tea brewing, storage and dispensing equipment at least once a day.
WARNING DO NOT
refrigerate unused
tea overnight for later
consumption.
