Beer Gas Blends

Beer gas blends are specially mixed gases used in draft beer systems to optimize the pouring experience. Typically a combination of carbon dioxide (CO₂) and nitrogen (N₂), these blends help regulate pressure and carbonation levels, affecting the beer's head, mouthfeel, and overall quality. For example, a higher nitrogen content produces a smoother, creamier texture, ideal for styles like stouts, while higher CO₂ levels enhance carbonation and brightness. By adjusting the gas mix, breweries and bars can tailor the beer's presentation to match the desired style and enhance flavor and texture for consumers.
