Pub Gas CO2/Nitrogen (60/40 Mix)
From: £22.50
This Harringtons drinks dispensing cylinder is a 60/40 mix, 60% CO2 to 40% nitrogen, blended for dispensing lagers and for soda machines. It’s a 10-litre bottle, sized for home brewers and low-usage customers rather than a busy commercial cellar, so it’s a practical choice if you dispense at home or keep a small setup running.
The mix is the part that matters: the higher CO2 proportion suits lagers and carbonated drinks, where you want the carbonation kept up as you pour. For ales and stouts, the 70/30 mix is the one to choose 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.

This Harringtons drinks dispensing cylinder holds a 60/40 mix, 60% CO2 to 40% nitrogen, blended for dispensing lagers and for use with soda machines. It’s a 10-litre bottle, and it’s pitched at home brewers and low-usage customers rather than high-turnover bars, so it suits anyone running a modest home or hobby setup.
The blend is what sets it apart from a plain CO2 cylinder. The higher CO2 proportion keeps the carbonation up in lagers and soft drinks as you dispense, which is what you want for a crisp, properly carbonated pour. If you’re serving ales, stouts and similar, those want a lower CO2 proportion, so the 70/30 mix is the right cylinder for them.
The one thing to keep in mind is the exchange policy. We can only exchange Harringtons cylinders, so we’re not able to accept cylinders from other brands for swap. If you’re setting up for the first time, get in touch and we’ll explain how it works.
