Guinness regulator pressure
Does anyone know the idea G-mix pressure for Guinness. I was told that when you first tap the keg to jack the pressure to 30 psi. Then after 12 hrs to dial it down to 15 psi. Does this sound right?

No. Normally to acquire the cascading effect at the faucet and to preserve the carbonation level for the life of the keg you will require a 25% CO2/75%N mix between 28 to 35 PSIG. Do not back this down to 15.

I have done some experimenting. I am now running 42 psi at 34 degrees. I have a stout faucet and the guinness faucet. By far the guinness faucet has given me better pours. Hope this helps someone else.

Help!!!!! So....I have had a kegorator for a while now and I received a Guinness Coupler for xmas this year. I have read all the info regarding "Guinness Gas" etc...my question is this. Is it possible to dispense Guinness without the required gas and faucet?
Has anyone tried it.....and how did it turn out?

You can use a normal faucet but you will still need to use a gas mix to dispense. Guinness has a very low gas content. Even at a very low pressure the product would over carbonate.
