LMAO!! I like a lot of 'Instant' things. And this does look cool, but it doesn't appear 'instant' at all. In fact, it looks like once you've realized that you needed it, and rounded up, and hooked up what was needed, it is going to be comparable time wise, but a lot more work. I have and instant solution as well requiring no special equipment. If I need to drink my beer right NOW and can't afford a whole half hour (in which you are drinking beer anyways as I described), release the pressure, open the corny, stir gently with sterilized object for 30 seconds-ish, seal it back up, hook up the serving pressure back up, purge, and serve. Done. :rockin:
Not to mention;
-Waste of gas
-More equipment hanging around
-If your keg is really full, you'll lose beer out the IN (I hate wasting great beer I could have drank)
-To quote the OP "OK, now vent the CO2, but do it slowly and gradually." "Repeat steps 4 & 5 3-4 times." "Perfect pour 30 minutes later."
hmmm, did he say 30 minutes...? Doesn't sound instant or faster than purge-n-pour.
I wan't trying to poopoo the OP's idea, just stating that it might be over-kill and thought that we could have and objective conversation about it.
To the OP; Great write-up, very innovative solution! Thank you. I appreciate anyone's effort to share an idea, and hope you don't mind me discussing other alternatives on the topic at hand.
