Morning all,
I've left this last minute, probably way too last minute and I'm kicking myself for it but I'm still going to have a go at getting it done.
Im looking to try this stout I've been making.
I have a carbing T-Piece from Kegland and I'm going to put about a litre of it into a plastic bottle. Want to bring it in and share a pint with a work colleague as he has been on me about trying it for the last month from I told him I was doing a stout on mixed gas.
I currently have the stout in the keg chilled to 3°C under 50psig to do a of burst carbonation, which I'll be dropping down to around 26 psig over the next couple of days.
I've seen and done quick carbonating with Pure CO2 for lager but I'm wondering if the same principle applies to 30/70 CO2/N2?
A video on YouTube by Grahon Lawlor shows him carbonating a stout in about 40 minutes using mixed gas and setting his keg keg on its side and rocking it back and forward.
I'll check how the carbonation of the stout is sitting later when I put some into the plastic bottle and I'll dispense off a pint.
However, my question still remains, if I'm not getting that sort of nitro cascading creamy stout that is so sought after using this gas, can I do the "pressurise and shake" to quick force carb it?
