Hello from the west mids

[jarvo]

Hi all my name is john and ive only just got into brewing.
My first brew was a stout that i'm curently enjoying at the mo,
i used bottles for this one and to be honest i would like to put my
next batch in a barrel as i want to use nitrogen gas to make it a smoother
drink. Because this batch using suger in the bottles was a bit to rough for me as im a draft lover.
anyway look forward to speaking to you all soon :thumb: :drink:

Welcome John! :

Glad you're enjoying your first brew. I prefer barrels to bottles too :thumb: Where about in the West Midlands are you?

Welcome to the forum John.
If you want to achieve and better pub beer you will need to go the All Grain route (the dark side)!

Hi and welcome to THBF :thumb:

You'll have to kit yourself out with a corny keg to get the draught your after with a 70/30 gas mix, I might be wrong but I think nylon would have problems under the extra pressure. :hmm:

Have a corny on order mate no point in buying a plastic barrel now only to spend again later to upgrade to corny :thumb:
