Abstract

A cleaning valve for cleaning a beverage dispensing device is provided. The cleaning valve includes a valve body (6) having a valve opening (6B), a valve lever (6A) coupled to the valve body and configured to move the valve body between a product dispense position and a sanitize position, a product port (3A) configured to alternatively output a beverage product and a sanitizer based on a position of the valve lever, and a sanitizer port (3B) configured to receive the sanitizer from a sanitizer reservoir. The valve opening may be configured to create a first fluid communication path when the valve lever is in the product dispense position to allow the beverage product to output from the product port, and may be configured to create a second fluid communication path when the valve lever is in the sanitize position to allow the sanitizer to output from the product port.
