Hey all,
I am relatively new to the home brew scene, although I've been drinking for quite some time
Right now I am in the process of making an Irish Stout, which I can only hope is close to Guinness, and so I have a few questions for you all.
First, after I finish putting the newly brewed beer in the keg, should I attach it to the beer gas mixture or will plain CO2 be sufficient to carbonate the beer for the week or two that it needs and then I hook up the beer gas when I'm ready to serve?
Second, can the nitrogen/CO2 mixture go in the C02 canister that came with my keganator? I understand that a nitrogen tank is needed for nitrogen, but this tank will have C02 in it as well so whats the deal?
Third, does the Guinness tap that has the restrictor plate in it work with all stouts and give it that cascade look?
Thanks all. You guys are the best!
