Can I use this dispenser for hot beverages?

Troubleshooting

Tap is not dispensing liquid

Ensure the lid is not screwed on too tightly. Loosen the lid slightly to break any vacuum seal that might be preventing flow.

Dispenser is unstable

Verify that the dispenser is on a level surface and that the metal stand is properly assembled and secure.

Leaking from the tap

Check if the tap is securely tightened to the dispenser body. Ensure any internal seals are properly seated.
