Tempted - IG in Corni.

Post by SiHoltye » Thu May 22, 2008 1:41 pm

Does anyone have experience of how problematic this might be when dispensing. I know IG forms a really loose sediment that is easily disturbed, but if the the corni were not moved at all, and the first pint or 2 were blasted out at 20psi before lowering to 3psi for the rest of it's dispensing life would the beer stay clear? :-k

Failing that what about 'U' shaped placcy tubing on the end of the long dip tube. This would raise the dispensing area by about 10mm off the bottom of the corni and away from the IG fluff?

Any thoughts on corni finings?

Fab. With this positive feedback I'll do it tonight. Meaning FV will be free tomorrow for another brew! :pink:
I'm easily pleased :wink:

I must admit I dont use IG or have a shorten dip tube :roll:

Time is all I use, that and a first few murky pints
But if you are in a hurry I realise IG is probably the only way to go
