I have seen some older posts with no reply for others looking for a Wexford Irish Cream Ale. Just wanted to put the APB out there its pretty awesome and would love to make a clone.

Anyone a fan of better bottles? Always figured glass is more sanitary.

I haven't used a 5 gal. carboy is some time and now I remember why (see pic). What are most people using now days for their primarys?

I got the calc from here. It actually suggested 47 PSI on beer gas but at 44 it blew one of the ball locks off the corny. I'm satisfied at 42 might try dropping it by a few LBs just to see if there is a noticeable change in the pour quality. http://mcdantim.com/distributor-tools/calculators/

Finally after a de-carbination and 42 psi of beer gas we have a near perfect pour.

In an effort to prove some friends wrong that Guinness is not a heavy beer I'm setting out to create a blonde Guinness recipe. Basically a Guinness clone less the roasted barley. But before I do I thought I would see if anyone has done before? Or is this just a waste of water and time.

Beer lines are about 14ft in all.

ok ran the calc and came up with mixed results. 47 PSI that can't be correct, can it?

I used a shop vac for wine in the past to degas must. I may give that a try.

I'm going to try and pull some carb off tomorrow by bleeding pressure from the keg and I will try doing a serve pour at above 30 psi perhaps 35. One thing I forgot to mention was that on day one it was working like a champ except I could do one perfect pour with nitro at 30 psi but if I went to...

Just for some context here is a pic of a typical pour. The head will take about 8-10 min to dissipate and after it does there is little retention. And whatever is left will be uneven and spotty in bubble composition. Looks more like soap suds.

Set it to about 20 PSI during the shake and roll, As for the blend it supped to be 75/25 and i'm serving at 30PSI. As for an ideal carb level I'm thinking 1.5-1.8 unless lower is more desirable for an nitro beer?

Did the shake and roll method for carb'n with the temp of the at about 34 F. I have another batch (Guinness Clone) that will be ready for kegging in a few more weeks and want to do that one properly. I don't have a stone but see no issue with picking one up or should I just toss CO2 on it for...

Force carb'd for a few days on C02 alone the switched to beer gas for pour

This is my first run with Nitro aka beer gas and I'm having mixed results with a Boddy clone. My main issue is too much foam and no head retention. My keezer is set to about 41f and my tap is about 14ft away on a refrigerated long draw system. My setup is the following. * C02 tank...
