keeping oxygen out which causes the beer to turn.
Has anyone ever tried filling the void in a keg with different gas that won't make it go off?

Another way to go is by using a Hambleton valve fitted into the corney keg lid, then use the filler adapter onto a soda stream bottle. Each fill of the bottle is between £11 /£14 so not that cost effective. If you can justify the outlay ( i heard a rumour you like a drink) take the route of a primary and secondary regulator for your gas. Speak to your friendly landlord he may have spare regulators lying around.I'll need to speak with you nearer the time when my bar's set up Sam regarding a gas bottle/corny keg setup.

19ltr a week without trying!Yeah I don't mind a quick half at Christmas or on birthdays Sam.
I think I will go the primary/secondary valve route and buy a new corny. I was thinking maybe a 34kg cylinder - how long would that last?

That is a Guinness or stout mix of gas .Co2/nitrogen and a demand valve to just bleed it in as beer is drawn out...
I go through a lot of nitrogen workwise ;-)

So, politicians v scientists.....pubs open for Easter or after ???? That is the question !!! Here's my view...the beer loving man in me wants a pint of hand-pulled real ale in a pub as soon as possible....but the sensible man in me says no no no ... definitely not for Easter !! Can you imagine the utter chaos and mayhem that would ensue as a result !! Remember that day on Bournemouth beach, so think of hundreds of thousands of Stella-swilling hooligans rampaging the streets from pub to pub coz they've been let loose (even with social distancing...yeah right) !!!!!! So, keep pubs closed till after Easter me thinks....in fact another week later....8th March when the kids start going back....or even when retail opens so that people are returning to work from furlough. I'm sure the hospitality sector will not be too keen on my plan though...but it might prevent chaos and a second lockdown. Apart from that, I don't want my first pint in weeks spilt in the rush LOL !!!
What do you reckon...me sensible or kill-joy ??? Maja
