What is a beer machine? 

A beer machine is a countertop appliance designed to dispense freshly tapped beer, similar to what you’d get in a bar or pub, but conveniently at home or in professional settings. These machines typically use pressurised kegs and cooling systems to serve beer at the ideal temperature and carbonation level. Beer machines, like BLADE, are perfect for parties, gatherings, or enjoying a draught-quality beer at home. They come in various sizes and are easy to use, making them a popular choice for beer enthusiasts. 

What kinds of beer machines are there? 

There are several types of beer machines available, each catering to different needs and preferences. Professional draught systems, like those you see at the pub, need external CO2 tanks and refrigeration units. Our home draught beer machines, like BLADE and BeerTender, are self-contained with their own cooling, pressurisation, and serving functions. Other types of beer machines include portable beer machines and DIY homebrew systems. 

What happened to the Krups beer machine? 

The SUB Classic & The SUB Compact Krups beer tap was discontinued in 2024. While these Krups beer taps helped pioneer the home draught market, valued feedback from our customers led us to make this decision.  

If you have The SUB Krups beer machine, don’t worry, we're keeping the 2-litre SUB kegs around for up to two years. So, there’s plenty of time to continue enjoying your favourite brews on draught at home.

What is the best beer machine? 

The best beer machine depends on your needs, but two standout options are the BLADE beer machine and the BeerTender.

The BLADE beer keg machine ensures fresh, perfectly chilled beer every time, thanks to its advanced cooling system, and offers a wide variety of premium beers, including top brands like Heineken, Birra Moretti, Cruzcampo and more. 

The BeerTender, on the other hand, is perfect for smaller gatherings or personal use. It’s compatible with 5-litre kegs, making it a great choice for those looking for variety. The BeerTender is sleek, easy to use, and ensures consistent draught quality with every pour. 

Is it worth buying a beer machine? 

A beer machine can be a great investment! They provide freshly poured, perfectly chilled pints, giving you a pub-like experience without leaving your house. If you're a frequent host, a beer enthusiast, or just enjoy trying different brews, a beer machine like BLADE or BeerTender offers a fun experience and is cost-effective in the long run, reducing the need for trips to the pub or purchasing bottles and cans.
