    Cask and Hand-pump

    Haven't tried Smithwicks but I've found the Caffrey's smooth flow a tad better than JS, I think the trick is with the smooth flow ales in cans is to allow them to warm up a bit after been poured, I think the malty flavours come through better. Just opened a Leeds Brewery's Leeds Best Bitter a...

    Cask and Hand-pump

    Are you drinking beer in the north or south of the UK? Just wondered if in the south they still serve good beer without the all important creamy head?

    Cask and Hand-pump

    But I reckon the hand pump makes all the difference to the experience and the beer. If it was served straight from the cask without the head it definitely loses something IMHO. So when you say homebrew bitter is just as good as say TT, that's homebrew through a pump yeah?

    Looks a nice pour that mate! How did you attach the swan neck silicon tube to the original pump pipe and also how is the aerator attached to the silicon tube as looks like some kind of fitting on the end?

    Gee for 35 quid is very cheap, did you need to service them, I'm assuming they were second hand?

    Cask and Hand-pump

    Over in the UK at the moment and just had my first pint of Timothy Taylor Landlord, what a bloody drop! Managed to down 3 pints over lunch, if I could homebrew anywhere near this I'd be over the moon! But definitely need some kind of hand pump. (BTW was trying to upload a photo but it seems to...

    That Hand Pump Mouthfeel

    I'm a bit confused with your set up, do you hand pull directly from the corny?

    That Hand Pump Mouthfeel

    I'm back in Gods Own at the moment (not far from Pontefract) visiting family watching LU and drinking local beers (definitely not in that order!) just bought a Boddington and Ossett Brewery pint glass as it happens. Use enjoy a good pint of Boddy's in a pub near Lymm.

    Cask and Hand-pump

    Saw a Youtube clip hand pulling from a keg whilst the vent is open and then they suggest that when you finished your session (if you're not blown out of your tree that is) regass at very low pressure and vent off the oxygen. Has anyone tried this and how does the beer go after being exposed to...

    Cask and Hand-pump

    Ah ok got it now, good explanation mate thanks for that. So to digress a tad, what I'm after is a method of getting close to being able to produce a pint of EB with the hand pulled characteristics i. e creamy head, low carbonation from a co2/corny keg system. You mentioned cranking up the Psi...

    Cask and Hand-pump

    Not sure what you mean, doesn't the co2 bottle top up the keg when the pressure drops in there and wouldn't the pressure at the tap increase if the beer line is shortened? Or am I missing something?
