Hello,
Been using a pressure barrell for my homebrew beer for sometime. I generally use high end beer kits, which produce very good results. The first 2 or 3 pints of the finished beer that I draw off are exceptional in taste and have that 'to die for taste'. However, the quality of any subsequent pints drawn off rapidly deteriorates. I will still have good pressure, but the beer will still be way below par. It seems as soon as the barrel tap is opened for the first time after natural carbonation has taken place - it's not long before the beer goes off.
Would I perhaps be better off in bottling my beer, as opposed to barrelling?
Thanks in advance,
David.
