Efficient Beer Line Cleaning with CellarControl: Protecting Quality and Reducing Wastage
CellarControl is an innovative addition to your existing beer line cleaning system, utilising low-frequency sweeping sound technology to prevent biofilm growth. This cutting-edge preventative technology is widely used across various industries worldwide, including commercial pool treatment, town water systems, hydroponics, medical fields, and dental care. Originally introduced to the Australian cellar industry in 2007, it has been trusted internationally since the early 1990s.
Each CellarControl system includes a control unit and activators, with one activator placed on each main drop lead line at the keg. These activators work continuously, 24/7, transmitting low-frequency sound waves to prevent build-up within your beer lines. As a result, the need for frequent beer line cleaning is drastically reduced, with cleaning required only every 6-8 weeks. This ensures consistently clean, great-tasting beer while using minimal power. The unobtrusive design of the system makes it an effortless and highly efficient beer line cleaner solution for any venue.
With CellarControl, you only need to clean your beer lines 9 times a year, rather than 52 times a year. Imagine the savings in beer wastage, chemicals, labour and all other associated costs with your beer line cleans.
Easily retrofitted to any venue
CellarControl can be easily fitted to any existing venue, no matter the size, new or old. The system is install in the morning prior to service.

How biofilm works – and why you need to prevent it.
Before CellarControl
Pictured – An illustration of biofilm growth within a beer line over time. The biofilm attaches and further spreads on the walls of the line, releasing harmful bacteria and increasing lactic acid counts, resulting in poor quality beer.
Biofilm is the cause behind the growth of bacteria within the beer line. Acting like a glue on the beer line walls and containing yeast and bacteria, it enables the further growth and spread of wild yeast, lactic acid and other harmful bacterias. Over time, this biofilm causes higher bacteria growth. Biofilm growth happens quickly, and within two weeks this can have a noticeable negative effect on your beer quality. Biofilm growth is typically treated by regular line cleaning.
After CellarControl
Pictured – Using scientifically proven sweeping sound technology, biofilm growth within the beer line is inhibited. With significantly reduced biofilm growth, spoilage bacteria is unable to grow and spread.
CellarControl technology inhibits biofilm growth within the beer line. Using scientifically endorsed sweeping sound technology, biofilm growth is drastically reduced, resulting in a cleaner tasting beer for longer – and enabling you to conduct beer line cleaning every 6-8 weeks, while still achieving optimal beer quality. Without biofilm growth, bacteria and lactic acid counts are kept at an absolute minimum, and ensuring your beer is served the way it was supposed to be – without the high cleaning costs.
Scientifically Proven Beer Line Cleaning: Setting a New Standard in Draft Beer Quality
CellarControl’s beer line cleaning process has been thoroughly tested and endorsed by EcoDiagnostics, a leading Government-accredited laboratory specialising in beer testing for major brewers.
Extensive testing across multiple venues has demonstrated that CellarControl not only improves beer quality compared to traditional beer line cleaning methods but also reduces the frequency of beer line cleaner requirements.
