So for the level I need of co2 would I be best to treat it as a cask with a secondary fermentation then hook up the 70/30 for dispensing

I thought that the beer absorbed the nitrogen too?

Maybe wrong choice of words but I found ages ago the calculator to do this with kegs and 70/30 The plan is after the primary fermentation to fill the keg and then just put it in the cooler at 50f 10c for a week with 70/30 connected at 2bar / 30psi - will this give me a nice creamy beer or have...

So we are well versed in kegging our lager by purging keg first with co2 then filling with beer… if we do a couple of kegs they can last a good few months - in fact that’s as long as we’ve tested as it never hangs around past then… We are going to have a go with a dark beer and 70/30 nitro/co2...

Hi guys - I’m on a drive to Lee my line lengths short as I’m wasting beer in them. I currently have kegs with 4ft of 3/8 coming out going through a chiller which then goes into a 9ft 3/16 line to the tap… works perfectly… The new plan was to have the 3/16line 3FT and and the 3/8 2ft...

Exactly this - 60psi primary input which is well within the Cleese tolerance

Yes - if I put a tap in the end and turn it of its quiet - I’ve just swapped the two regs over

Hi guys - I got the propane regulator as mentioned but I a lot of co2 comes through is very audible even in setting 1 is this right? I have got a Micromatic regulator that’s goes down down to 3psi and the new one is loader on 1 than that at 3psi by some margin - trying to work out if I have a...

Hi All - I have bought a few fonts now the Porta chrome style and they all have some degree of corrosion bubbling under the chrome or already burst through. is there anyway to fix this I assume not and its just cheap metal?

Cheers good info

also another question on this do you guys run pure co2 (like me) what life does it give you in a cask? I get a good 4 weeks.. I’m thinking of swapping to 60/40 and wondered if I could expect similar?

We have cask widge the same as that - what John guest fitting is that that you’ve screwed in?

When you say set to 3-7 is that psi? We had gone with regs directly before set to about 5 and the flojet but got a bit more fobbing - I guess these Cleese regs offer more control can you get John guest fittings? Another solution to my problem is would an angram hand pull work if I dropped the...

Hi guys - I currently have a couple of hand pulls and a co2 cask breather setup - it’s great and keeps the conditioning in for a good week or two. The problem is the wastage is about a pint per pump when I pull the lines through. I had an idea which I’ve not seen anyone mention on the internet...
