Stout Faucet With Co2

Beer is forced through 5 tiny holes in the restrictor plate delivering that dense delicous creamy head for which guinness is so famous.

Stout faucet with co2. That restriction plate works by forcing the low levels of co2 to come out of solution and make that nice creamy head. Also be aware that beer gas is sold in cubic feet and not in pounds as co2 is sold. This is the faucet you would use with a nitrogen co2 gas mixture in a guinness style set up but can also be used with a straight co2 set up. Even the 1 5 to 2 0 volumes you would use for a british pale ale is too much.

Luckily stout faucets use the same fittings as any other faucet so there is no need for you to buy any additional shanks or draft tower fittings unless of course you re adding the stout faucet as an additional permanent tap in your lineup. First force carbonate your beer with carbon dioxide but not very much. Features a pull forward to pour and push back for creamer design. You should consult a carbonation calculator and aim for 1 0 to 1 2 volumes.

The beers are pushed with stout blend gas of 70 nitrogen to 30 co2 so that the co2 levels stay low while allowing enough pressure to be exerted to force the beer through the restriction plate. In fact freshly fermented beer kept on the cool side should contain almost enough dissolved gas that you ll hardly have to add any at all. Remember that the stout faucet will cause gushing if there is too much co2 in solution. Detachable spout with restrictor disc and flow straightened.

Showing you can get decent results with a stout faucet on co2 only and not have to deal with n2 or beergas.
