Nitro cold brew

[coffeecharles]

I saw a video on YouTube of cold brew from a keg that had a head and cascade like a stout beer and it had me very curus. Does anyone know if this is nitrogen or beer gas? How could I replicate in my kegerator.

thanks

Chuck,

I just had that over the weekend.
It is not Nitrogen or Gas but pressured pump on the keg.
I had this and taste was amazing.
It had very smooth like dark beer and you need to brew coffee much more heavy.
If you have further questions, let me know. I am actually going to be adding this to my menu at my shop.

Thanks for the quick reply. I have heard of a couple places using nitrogen. And seen videos where the tap is directly attached to the keg and only gas tank hooked to inlet. How would I use a pump? Thanks

Hello, can you attach the link to this video? Very interesting.

The keg comes with pressure pump built in. This will allow user to pump the air in and you can see the pressure gage to know how much pressure to put in.
I saw and tasted Nitro Coffee. They are nice but air pressure does the same.

Interesting. What pressure is required?

Not sure about coffee, but Nitro beer is awesome. I even just had Left Hands Wake the Dead Imperial. At Oskar Blues brewery they had their normal beers, and then same variations nitro trapped, same beer totally different taste/mouth feel.

I want to make correction. I thought coffee I was talking about was air pressured coffee but in fact it is nitro coffee.
I will be learning this and I will help people who would want to add this to their shop....

sounds interesting.

 

[CoffeeJunky]

it is pretty amazing.
I think adding this to your shop would widen the gap from other mismanaged none -specialty coffee shops.

I setup a a nitro system a few months ago in the rough stages. Used a Perlick Stout tap, ordered my 5 gallon tank and accessories from Northern Brewer. You can use a kegerator if you have one but I plan on having a triple tap setup. You have to use food grade Nitrogen which is available at most gas suppliers that fill CO2 tanks. I set my pressure at 40lbs. Spend a couple of buck more and purchase a dual stage regulator.

Nice.... How is the responds from your customers?
What type of brew are you using, I am assuming you are using the dark roasted or espresso blend.
Lastly, what do you do for the promotions or advertizing.

Thanks.
