Pubinno, a San Francisco based startup, has recently launched a Smart Clean system that self-cleans the draft beer lines. Powered by artificial intelligence, 'Smart Clean' is developed to fully automate and digitalise the periodical cleaning of draft beer lines. Pubinno's Smart Clean system flushes draft lines with regards to their usage metrics, beer type, cooling system and length.
The Smart Clean system has the highest hygienic standards. It helps eliminate 85% of physical human touch from the entire draft beer line cleaning process. In a single go, up to four draft beer lines can be cleaned simultaneously without any external dependencies. Smart Clean also gives bar/brewery/pub owners the ability to schedule their own draft beer line cleanings. This enables a business to set up cleaning as soon as the keg runs out of beer.
Award Winning Design

Smart Clean’s patented AquaVibra™ technology improves effectiveness and efficiency of the regular line cleaning process. The process ensures to shake the cleaning solution and water inside the draft beer lines towards different directions. This is done to exert additional friction on the inner walls of the lines. AquaVibra™ technology has 400% more pressure on the inner walls of beer lines to ensure the highest possible standards of hygiene.

It connects five stakeholders of the draft beer ecosystem who are brewers, bartenders, bar owners, maintenance, support teams and beer lovers. Smart Tap, Smart Hub, and Smart Clean are three interconnected technologies of the “Internet of Beer”.
