Krups C75 BeerTender Home Beer-Tap System with Heineken DraughtKeg Technology Review.
"Huge fan of Krups and Heineken, now I have the best of both worlds." 2009-09-14
By Addie M (Chicago, IL)
I recently bought the C75 Beertender as we prepare for the fall football season and we love it- here's why.
* Heineken is the beer of choice in our house, so when we saw the mini draught kegs in the grocery store, we knew this would be a nice alternative to the bottles and cans we normally buy for our gatherings.
* I am a big a fan of Krups products; I've always used a Krups coffee maker; I can't live without the pannini grill and recently purchased the fully automatic espresso machine- which we love. When I saw the Beertender, I knew we had to have one in our house.
* We have beer on tap all the time! Does it get any better then that? The beer stays at the perfect temperature, it doesn't take up any room in our refrigerator and it tells us when the keg needs to be replaced, if we exceed the 30 day freshness period. (So far we have drained the kegs before that date happens but we have come close)
I'm thinking this will be a great present for all the beer lovers in our families.
"Another cold one please!" 2010-06-27

I received the B95 version of this BeerTender as a gift. It has the capability of 3 temps for your beer. I keep it ice cold at 39 degrees. Some reviews complained of too much foam when pouring. My experience has been that the first two glasses may have a little more foam than desired, but that's normal when opening a new keg anyway. After the first two, I always make sure to keep the spigot touching the glass AND have the glass tilted as far as possible to have a perfect pour.
I love it and it works well with my new bar on the counter top. Great space saver if you don't want or need a full size keg. That's it. I'd recommend it to anyone who likes a cold Heine! It comes in regular and light at a cost of about $20 a 5L keg. You can really get a lot of 8 oz. glasses out of this keg. As a Wisconsin native, I think you can trust me on the important topic of beer. Enjoy!

Ordered this item for a Christmas gift for my husband and he tested it out that weekend. We had a small gathering and the guys just loved it. I loved that they did not have to keep opening our fridge for a refill. Hope they come out with more brands in the kegs but my husband and his Heineken drinking pals will get alot of use out of the beertender. Hopefully we get a few years out of it and I will be totally satisfied.
"beertender for small Heineken kegs" 2010-08-16

We previosly owned the version above this one with the digital display. We had two of those and both stopped indicating correctly after only a few uses. Besides, those were around $300.00. This time we opted for the less complicted version that still provides you a great way to serve you a nice cold beer at the temperature you desire. It has simple indicaters that still work (and hopefully will keep on working) at a fraction of the price of other beertenders. The unit is good
looking and most people haven't noticed the switch. A great way to serve a cold beer out of a keg!

I bought this as a birthday present for my boyfriend and it is fantastic - pour your own pint every mans dream! no problems with drippage etc although it does take a while to master the technique.
