Will Brooks, Tequila Brand Ambassador
“QuikTap is hands down the best solution for Cocktails on Tap as well as a sanitary option for filling bottled cocktails in house. They have done all the work and created a perfect, low cost way to quickly get up and running with Cocktails on Tap. End of story, QuikTap is the #1 best solution for offering your guests a craft cocktail on tap or bottled cocktails that money can buy.”
Phillip R, Mixologist and National Account Manager for On Premise
“I work for a hotel company and have been partnering with QuikTap to install systems at many of our hotels across the US as they are an amazing product. We use them at pool / banquet bars with pre-made cocktails and Sangria to allow us provide a quality consistent product at a bar that generally has limited space for a lot of complex ingredients.”

This means that you can choose to have your 2.5 gallon stainless steel keg wrapped with a high quality vinyl wrap, made custom with your graphics/logo. When you purchase this option, we will email you the instructions and process to make this happen! Customization on average takes approximately 3-4 weeks to ship from the time of approved artwork.

The single use gas cylinders (74gr CO2 and 18gr Nitrogen) offer the most portability with the QuikTap Tabletop Dispenser. Our bulk gas option offers a less expensive gas dispense cost and is ideal for long term placement on the bar or for larger pouring events where space is not limited. The best part is our QuikTap lineup of dispensers are modular and can be adapted for both single use gas cylinders and bulk gas.
The capacity of the QuikTap® Tabletop Dispenser is 2.5 gallons, however, it is recommended and best practice to formulate your cocktails to no more than 288 ounces.
Example: 288 liquid ounces will make 48/6oz cocktails. Six ounces of liquid will fill a 14oz glass filled with ice.
Batch mixing cocktails in larger format offers many benefits for higher volume accounts such as: increased speed of service, consistency of cocktail and reduced labor. Also a game changer for larger events such as weddings and private parties.
There are a couple of reasons that this can happen and there is a simple solution!
- Check to make sure you are putting the the disconnects on the proper “posts” on the keg. The post marked “in” is for the regulator assembly (grey=gas) and the post marked “out” is for the faucet assembly (black=booze and booze comes out)
- Make sure you are pulling up on the collar of the disconnect when attaching to the keg!
- There is a black o-ring on both of the keg posts. Sometimes these will dry out over time and need some lubrication. Simply apply a small amount of food safe lubricant with your finger around the o-ring and this should solve your problem.
- Make sure the post o-ring isn’t damaged. If it is, simply replace it.
Each keg is pressure tested before it is sent out. Here’s a few things to check and resolve the issue:
#1 Is the PRV (pressure relief valve) stuck open or loose? The PRV is located in the middle-top of the lid and has a small ring on it. If gas is leaking from the PRV, you will be able to feel or hear the gas exiting the keg. Be sure it is fully seated by pulling up on it and watch it properly set in the down position. Turn the ring clockwise to tighten the valve. The PRV will also activate if the pressure inside the keg is too high.
#2 Is the lid aligned properly? Release the lid and make sure all sides are evenly touching before locking. A leak can occur if the lid is not attached correctly.
#3 Is the black rubber o-ring on the lid? Each lid comes with this o-ring. Without this ring, there will not be an airtight seal. At times (especially during long periods of storage), the lid o-ring can stick to the inside top of the keg.
#4 Using food safe lubricant, lubricate the o-ring generously.

The QuikTap® Cocktail On Tap Golf Kit utilizes an internal check valve on the regulator assembly. This is utilized to help avoid backflow into the regulator if the keg is mounted on a beverage golf cart. The golf kit also comes standard with a stainless steel self closing faucet to prevent any accidental or unwanted pouring.
We recommend batching at (2) gallons or as close to 256 ounces as possible. Over filling of the keg will result in the beverage back-flowing into the regulator causing the dispenser not to work. If this happens, turn the regulator to the off positions, release all pressure in the keg by pulling up the pressure relief valve on the lid, removing the lid, and emptying out enough liquid so the gas dip tube is no longer submersed.
On the keg you’ll see an IN post (male fitting) and OUT post (male fitting). Black = booze. Booze goes OUT. Gray = gas. Gas goes in. Be sure to pull up on the collar on the disconnects (female fitting) and push down until you hear the distinct CLICK of the poppet and disconnect engaging properly. Make sure to keep the o-rings on the keg posts lubricated with food-grade lubricant!
Absolutely. To avoid any clogging or restricted pouring, it is recommended to fine strain all ingredients before they go into the keg. It is also recommended to avoid any overly thick mixes, such as pre-bottled bloody mary mix.
On average, 4-6 PSI is normal for non-carbonated beverages. The CO2 is simply used to push out the beverage. If you’re pouring a carbonated beverage such as a Moscow mule, you’ll want to keep the PSI higher (15-20 PSI) and take advantage of the Perlick Flow control faucet to reduce pouring speed.
There are a few different options for this. Many will pre-batch the cocktails and put them in the refrigerator or cooler. In the very warm environments, we’ve seen users use a tub with ice and place the dispenser in them. Best practice is to serve the cocktails over ice.
The 74g CO2 cylinder is used to push the cocktail out from the keg. Depending on many variables including ambient temperature, pouring PSI, or head space in the keg to name a few, each 74g cylinder on average will dispense qty 2, 2.25 gallon batches. The CO2 also acts as a natural preservative as well as, helping shelf life of natural ingredients.

QUIKBOX® FAQs
There are variables at play here, such as serving pressure (PSI), full kegs or not, temperature of CO2 tank, etc. That being said, the conservative answer is that you should expect to be able to pour 12-18 full 5 gallon corny kegs.
Using CO2 to dispense cocktails with not carbonate your cocktails. If your cocktails already have carbonation, using CO2 will help preserve the carbonation while serving. The nature of using the QuikBOX® is for events/parties/functions that will serve many cocktails over the time of said function, meaning that use of CO2 gas to dispense is fine. Force carbonation of cocktails is a different subject matter altogether, which we can help with as well! If you are wanting to dispense with Nitrogen with your QuikBOX®, simple switch out the CO2 regulator that comes with the QuikBOX® Kit with a Nitrogen primary regulator. If you need additional information or help, give us a call at 855-784-5827
The QuikBOX® is very similar to a Jockey Box that beer folks use. However, the QuikBOX® Kit has all 304 stainless steel components, is set up specifically for use with Cornelius style kegs, and includes everything you need to serve cold, refreshing cocktails to large crowds. We thought of everything in this kit, down to our custom coolers for the kegs, to make sure that you don’t have to “build your own” solution and can focus on your business, not dispense. We also offer customization of the QuikBOX® to highlight your brand or company in the best light at all events!
Batch mixing cocktails in larger format offers many benefits for higher volume accounts such as: increased speed of service, consistency of cocktail and reduced labor. Also a game changer for larger events such as weddings and private parties.
It is of paramount importance to keep your equipment clean and sanitized, not only for health reasons but for the longevity of your QuikBOX®. Immediately after each use, attach your cleaning keg of PBW (and after, Star San sanitizer) liberally through the entire unit. Let the PBW sit in all lines for 20 minutes. Flush with Star San sanitizer. Disassemble the QuikBOX® in reverse of assembly. Hang up your Liquid beverage lines to dry. Remove the ice and water from the cooler. Store the QuikBOX® with the top slightly ajar to allow sufficient airflow to dry.
The QuikBOX® made by QuikTap® is the best way to pour high volumes of your beverage cold while not diluting it with ice. In this video you will learn how to unpack, connect the self closing faucets, liquid lines and gas lines and get pouring portably in no time. This setup is built specifically for 5 gallon Cornelius style kegs.
