5 Gal Basic Pressure Beer Barrel with Vent Cap

5 Gal Basic Pressure Beer Barrel with Vent Cap

Q: Hi im brewing beer do i need the co2 cap kit with barrel ?

HiThis barrel comes with a vented cap which is designed to release any over-pressure in the barrel and stop the barrel from splitting. If you prime the barrel with sugar (usually says how much in the instructions that are supplied with the kit or in the recipe you are following) then you will find that this is really all you need to give your ale a gentle sparkle. However if you find that you would like the beer to be dispensed faster and so have more of a head on it then you may wish to consider buying a CO2 pressure cap and bulbs, but please note that the CO2 injection systems are only designed to help dispense the beer - they are NOT designed to make the beer fizzier and will not do so.Hope this answer helps.RegardsBigger Trading t/as BiggerJugs

Q: This may seem a silly pquestion, but can you do all of the brewing in this barrel or do still do the brewing in a bucket or demijohns first?

This barrel is designed to put the finished beer, lager or cider in to for storage and dispensing in to glasses, you CAN NOT ferment in it. For fermenting you would need a bucket such as we sell under the listing number B003ZZEIIC https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B003ZZEIIC?ref=myi_title_dp or the starter kit that I have just replied to you about in reply to your other question. Hope this answers your question successfully. Bigger Trading t/as BiggerJugs

Q: Do i need an airlock with this barrel like i would a glass demijon? I am making cider.

Hi Please ignore the earlier response to this question from another Amazon customer as the information given was not correct and would probably lead to the barrel splitting down it's seam. You should never ferment anything (beer, cider, lager, mead or wine) in a pressure barrel you should always use a fermentation vessel such as a demi john or bucket. Pressure barrels are designed to use storing and dispensing beverages that have been fermented prior to being placed in them. If you are fermenting the cider please use one of our 25 Litre Fermentation Buckets with airlock - ASIN B003ZZEIIC - If you pop this ASIN number in to your amazon search box it will take you directly to the listing. Hope this helps Bigger Trading t/as Bigger Jugs

If you read the description, you will see that it has a vent cap so there is no risk of excessive pressure build up.
