    Using corny keg to catch CO2 to then prevent O2 ingress when chilling

    Just an idea, What's peoples thoughts on venting the fermenter blow-off through a corny keg? When I cold crash I could then connect a balloon to keg or gas the keg up and use a regulator to drip feed co2 if the fermenter requires gas upon cooling. I have attached a doodle of what I mean. The...

    Using a mixed gas - advice please

    Hi all, I brewed a Brown Porter (Greg Hughes epic recipe). I thought it would be nice using a mixed gas so I have got a 70/30 (N2/CO2) mix. Also a new regulator and stout tap. Now, what do I do? Do I carbonate as normal with CO2 and dispense with mixed gas? I'm sure I heard to carbonate...
