Just doesn't seem to work with lager, which is what Singha, Chang etc are. Lager does have to be cold and moderately fizzy. Proper beer, no. But thanks for the suggestion.

natway09 Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 Guinness is pumped with nitrogen. Good breweries create their own C02 anyway. Problem will be softdrinks & really flat tonic I can handle with my gin 555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately for us, who live in Thailand, this is not a problem as we can not buy our beers anyway ???? Fortunately for us in Cambodia, this is not a problem as we CAN still buy beer, mainly in bottles and cans!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digger70 Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 One can Brew beer and be very fizzy. One doesn't need CO2. Brewed a good beer many times in AUS . Just have to take care not to Overdo it with the sugar when Bottling. Booooom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem will be softdrinks & really flat tonic I can handle with my gin 555 Guinness is pumped with a mix of nitrogen and CO2 (30/70 mix) as are all the so-called 'smooth' 'beers'. Breweries do not create their own CO2 because that is used in dispensing and brewers just supply the product. Specialist companies produce and bottle the gases used for dispensing. Distributors usually supply a number of keg beers and the gases needed to pump them. Real ale is usually served by a hand pump which uses air to move the liquid, rather than the poisonous gas used in fizzy beers which affects the taste. Bubbling CO2 through water creates carbolic acid (H2CO3) which doesn't belong in beer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grumpy John Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 There's a ready source of CO2 for recharging flat beer on you all the time. Sure there are a few other gases as well but you don't throw the buckets of water overboard when your removing bilge water, right? Every time you pass wind there is some CO2 in the....wind! As I am not a beer drinker I'll leave it to you guys to come up with a working solution to putting the re-entry CO2 to good use. When you find the solution you can share among yourselves....preferably! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khunken Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 As a renowned (amongst my friends) beer brewer in a certain dry country, you don't need co2 to put the fizz in beer, you just add a pinch of sugar before bottling and allow a week or so (depending on desperation to taste it) for secondary fermentation. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
