Add cold brew to the growler IMPORTANT: Only fill the growler up to 50%-75% maximum (40 oz - 48 oz). The gas needs space to form! Filling the growler up all the way can cause unwanted pressure leakage, since the gas will need to escape!2. Install the faucet: add small thin black silicone rubber ring to spear/faucet connection point (one of four in ziploc bag). Attach plastic hose.3. Put the NITRO by Best Whip 2g N cartridge in jacket.4. Screw in the nitrogen jacket until you hear a hissing noise.5. Shake keg well (15-20 seconds), let it sit for 20-30 minutes to absorb gas from the 1st cartridge before adding a 2nd cartridge if using Nitrogen (if using nitrous oxide use only 1 cartridge). Then, put into refrigerator for 1 hr minimum.6. Enjoy your nitro brew coffee! Note: All tap systems drip due to excess foam, so tap your glass on the edge of the stout faucet tip after you've closed the tap handle or lightly shake the keg forward to get the remaining coffee to flow out of the tip. Use our included tap plug to close off the faucet tip.Foam Tips: Your homemade cold brew won't interact optimally with the gas if it is too watery or too concentrated. Try buying store-bought cold brew to test if the foam responds better, or, if brewing your own, do the following ratio:7 oz of Ground Coffee *to* 28 oz of water = yields = 16 ounces of coffee concentrate. Then, add 32 ounces of water to the coffee concentrate to form an ideal blend of 48 oz of cold brew for your 96 oz keg. (Note: Use 40 oz, if gas escapes, just use less cold brew to leave room for gas, for example).Note: To liven up the top layer of your pour, substitute a few oz of cream in place of water -- most shops do use cream in their cold brew before adding nitro, so this will help give you that same experience.You should also try Nitrous Oxide cartridges, instead of Nitrogen, if you want more foamier results. For more foam, use the Ultra Pure-Whip Nitrous Oxide 8g cartridges (1 per batch for 64 oz keg). Nitrous oxide adds a slightly sweet taste and you only need to use 1. For a classic stout flavor without the added sweetening, instead use 2 x Nitrogen cartridges by Best Whip (or similar brand). For maximum foam, be sure to shake the keg well (10-15 seconds) after each cartridge and to wait a minimum of 20 minutes between each cartridge. Make sure to shake the keg every 24 hours to extend the life of the nitrogen cartridge.
