Keg Essentials spent over two years of its four-year existence and tens of thousands of dollars to Patent its Monitoring System and did so before raising one dollar or selling one system.  The reason: Generally speaking, anything not patented can be copied, borrowed, or manufactured by anyone.   The Company's Patent No. 11,209,300 was issued on December 28, 2021, essentially giving Keg Essentials 20-year monopoly-like protections.  It prohibits other individuals or companies from making, using, or selling the design without authorization.

U.S. Patent No. 11,209,3001

Introducing Keg Sentry™

The industry's first non-software-based Draft Beer Monitoring System designed to provide highly accurate full-time monitoring of draft beer as it flows from tapped kegs.

This simple, cost-effective system provides an alternative to inaccurate weekly or monthly periodic inventory methods using scales or shake-and-guess draft inventory routines.     

The Keg Sentry Monitoring System below is set to continuously monitor eight 124-pint US kegs.  As with cans or bottled beer, the inventory process consists of recording the number of pints in each keg before and after each shift.  The difference in these two numbers represents the Beer Poured during the shift.   Beer Poured is then compared to Beer Sold in the bar Point-of-Sale POS system.  Any difference in the two numbers represents Draft Overpours or Underpours, which can now be reconciled after each shift before any significant revenue loss occurs.  

Keg Sentry is the Easiest Draft Beer Monitoring System to Operate in the Industry

Each Keg Monitor Module is  Controlled with a Single Push-Button Switch.

Keg Sentry Makes Draft Beer Inventory as Simple as Cans or Bottled Beer
