70% CO2 & 30% Nitrogen

This Harringtons drinks dispensing cylinder is a 70/30 mix, 70% nitrogen to 30% CO2, blended for dispensing ales, stouts and similar drinks. It’s a 10-litre bottle aimed at home brewers and low-usage customers, so it suits a home or hobby setup rather than a busy commercial cellar.

The blend is the key. Ales and stouts want a lower CO2 proportion than lagers, and the higher nitrogen content gives that smooth, creamy pour you associate with a well-kept ale or a nitro stout. If you’re dispensing lagers or running a soda machine, the 60/40 mix is the one for those instead.

One thing to know on refills: we can only exchange Harringtons cylinders, so we’re not able to accept other brands for swap. We deliver across our defined Reading area, so check your postcode is covered, or call the yard on 0118 9242888.
