Anthony Dalton Posted November 19, 2021 Report Posted November 19, 2021 Hey all, Was really excited this morning, I had planned to sample my first brew this evening. Put the keg in the Brew Flo this morning before work. When I got home at lunchtime the unit was in error (E3). I turned it on again, then after ten minutes the same deal. It is definitely cooling when its on, but keeps finding error. I had not connected any of the lines to the keg because it was my understanding that I do that after the keg has chilled. Any feedback or guidance will be appreciated.

In you leave this in without connecting to your keg then once you close the lid the compressor will engage in an attempt to pressurise the keg. Once the compressor has run continuously for a set period without sensing some back pressure in the line it will shut off and throw the error. If this is what is occurring, switch the unit off completely. Unplug the black elbow piece, close the lid, turn it back on and and give it another try. Please let us know how you go. Cheers.

Anthony Dalton Posted November 19, 2021 Author Report Posted November 19, 2021 It's the morning after, and the beer was fantastic. I had a few people around and they were super impressed. We drank a couple of kegs of the American Pale Ale, it was a really nice drop. 1
Luke Sibenaler Posted June 11, 2022 Report Posted June 11, 2022 I also have the same error? I have done what Dustin suggested and still the same E3 error. The unit was brought second hand and I don’t know what to do next? Any suggestions would be appreciated as I want to enjoy my first brew. Regards, Luke.
