Is there anyone out there who prefers the use of british style plastic pressure barrels (basic or king keg) to that of the more modern corny keg system?
Just be interesting to know if there's folks out there preferring this without doubt more basic, less technical method of brewing.
I have half a dozen or so pressure barrels and get quite jealous when I see these modern looking corny keg systems force carbonating beers/lagers etc before dispensing them from pub style handled fonts.
However on reflection just how convenient and cost effective is this method compared to the good old pressure barrels?
Cost of buying Co2 refills and how much of that do u go through in comparison?
Love to hear thoughts, comments etc all will be greatly recieved.
Along with any pics of pressure barrel style systems, bars, brewer:drunk:ies etc with any tips. Especially is there a method of force carbonating to get the beer ready as quick as the corny ones and any tips at all of keeping pressure barrel beer cold especially in summer warmth.

Tho when set up and tuned correctly the simple pleasure of flipping the tap to get a consistent and purrfect pour is far superior to the every pint is different pour from a PB.
