It Starts With Our Revolutionary Draft Seltzer Systems
Before the design process even begins, you can take comfort in knowing that your new system has already been engineered to deliver the perfect pour. Far from your typical soda fountain system found in gas stations or fast food restaurants, these systems use revolutionary technologies to deliver the fast, efficient service customers crave.
The perfect pour, every time: Expertly designed and installed glycol-cooled tap lines and flow-controlled seltzer draft arms and towers ensure that all drinks are served at the ideal carbonation and temperature.
Designs tailored to your business: Choose from multiple tap configurations and multiple kiosk sizes to design something that works with your existing layout. Whether you're new to seltzers or are looking to accommodate a large selection, we provide a system with the perfect number of taps.
Maximum efficiency: Integrating the latest RFID technology and other self-serve conveniences allows our systems to increase service efficiency. Customers will enjoy faster, more precise service that reduces wait times and errors, even during peak hours.
Customer experience first: Customers enjoy interactive digital menus that make it easier for them to pour their favorite seltzers. It includes customizable templates and tools that make self-pour a breeze.
Sustainable & cost-effective: Professionally clamped faucets and efficient keg-based dispensing both minimize overpouring and eliminate the need for single-use bottles and cans. Reduce waste overtime while you cut operational costs.
Why Use Self-Serve Technology For Seltzer?
Far from simple water, the best seltzers maintain ideal carbonation and rich flavors. Installing your own system can lead to issues, while proper design, installation, and maintenance ensure purity and the intended taste. Here's why a draft system is essential for seltzer quality:
Preserving Carbonation and Flavor: Free from sugars and other additives, seltzers rely on precise carbonation levels and consistent temperature to deliver their crisp, refreshing taste. Anything from inconsistent pressure to a lack of line cleaning can lead to flat or over-carbonated pours. Always maintain consistent pressure with GS Draft's expert design, installation, and maintenance services.
Preventing Cross-Contamination: Planning on serving something other than seltzer? Properly maintained lines are crucial for maintaining purity. Poorly maintained lines can introduce residues from other beverages, impacting both taste and safety. Regular cleaning prevents buildup and keeps your seltzer flowing as intended.
