inline oxygenation is how most breweries do it. need flowmeters and such. As to doing nitro beers, if you have the set up cant you just push it with nitro? Or do you have/ want more than 1 beer on tap?Need the stout faucet for a true cascade.

Flow meters n stuff sure, heavily regulated for the breweries that do use straight o2. But good filtered and way cheaper compressed air does just as good with no chance of off flavors. And no way to nitrogenate I keg with just head pressure. It's about as 1/10th as soluble as co2. We use a Venturi-jet setup to jam nitrogen in. Even then we literally force as much as possible And it's never enough. |

i would think there'd be more of a chance with compress air than with pure 02. flowmeters are not a problem, we use them on all our welders. as far as nitrogen saturation, i keg so couldn't i put them under so many lbs. of pressure and condition them that way? i'll dispense with co2.

Just get a ss sintered stone and give it a 1-2 l/min (or whatever those units are on o2 flowmeters) of flow for 1-2 min in the carboy after you have transferred. Way easier to sanitize too. Don't worry about inline. I would think you would over oxygenate doing it like that on a homebrew setup as well. |

I tried the 30 min/filtered air way first, and wort bubbled over and made a mess in 10 mins, it sucked. I got the oxygen tank and 1-2 minute and my fermentations have been rocking. |
