Way to many buzzwords to make me interested.
The Fizzics DraftPour tap seems to be another expense that a lot of people seem to be praising. Seems like a gimmick to me. A nitrosurger device with a tap. But what do I know.
https://store.fizzics.com/products/fizzics-draftpour
Available from Brennans Brewery in Wexford - https://www.thebrennansbrewery.com/index.php/fizzics (It says €179 but I think it is €149, might be worth phoning them to check)
or Amazon for €143 - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Fizzics-DraftPour-Beer-Dispenser-Anywhere/dp/B07G5NQ5B7
Possibly cheaper elsewhere.
I've never heard of these before a week or two ago. What are they. I bought a 6 pack of surder cans but the lad in the shop didn't know anything about them.
What are they , where do I get them ? Google is wrecking my head !
Getting great consistency from mine now using the below steps.
Fully charged
Warm glass that's just been washed and dried
Cold can
Warm water ran through the surger just before use
Pour as per instructions.
Each is coming out decent and consistent
Not available due to delays, sorry folks...
Can't see these on aldi.ie, can you post the link and how much they cost, thanks.
The ultrasonic jewellery cleansers are back in Aldi tomorrow if anybody's interested in giving them a go.
Same happened to me. I got a slab from Tesco a few weeks before Xmas. Half of them were flat so poured them out. Some waste of money
Yes.
No devices anywhere.
anyway I found an old Guinness surger unit I had from years ago.
works perfectly
Sound pass both most days will have a look
Tesco in coonagh seem to get a fairly regular flow of them. Also supervalu at Grove Island
I have 6 of these cans for weeks now but no unit.
Anybody seen the unit for sale in Clare or limerick?
Aye, got that, and I understand, but had explained that there had been a christening and most were drank, it was just to notify them.. I wasn't bothered with getting a free slab.. Especially then, they were only €20 😂 (The good ol' days.)
The real annoyance was every week and a half-ish another email asking me details.
An odd free slab now would be greatly appreciated.. 😜
Just wondering has anyone seen the Guinness surger unit anywhere?
Tesco in Dundrum have a decent stock of cans.
@Suckit I can just imagine some lad phoning up to complain... "Yeah they've all been opened... I had to check all of them. What do you mean you won't give me a free slab" 😉
I grabbed another 6 pack last night and had 2. The head was much better than the muck produced last week. It maybe didn't last as long as I'd like but it was definitely better all round.
I got a bad batch of normal Guinness draught (538ml) around November. I had a load of them that were flat even if the widget worked (which it didn't a lot of times). I notified them about it, but the girl on the other end was really slow getting back to me, not really bothered it seemed. I found that annoying. Then she asked me for all of my details address, DOB, Name etc. and a few other daft questions. Later she asked how many of them I had left in my fridge. Then said they were sending this inflatable tube crap to collect them and i was told it could take up to 6 months to check them etc. That arrived the first week in January, I didn't bother. I just wanted to make them aware I had a bad batch. I was equally or more annoyed with the slow replies.
The surger/ nitro surge facebook group is all giving out about the quality of the latest batch of cans. Me and the father in law still working through the 538 slabs though!
Hopefully it's just a bad batch in that case. Might wait a week or two before trying again.
Have ordered one of those devices on Aliexpress. Worth a shot at €18 given that it may be a good while until the Guinness ones reappear in the shops.
Essentially the same.
Are these essentially the same as the Guinness units just without the branding, or is there a technical difference?
I had the exact same issue last night. It definitely wasn't performing like it did before Christmas, open boxed cans too.
My local supervalu had the Nitro cans in a new type of box(open ended not the older closed box of cans) at the weekend so I gladly grabbed them as I hadn't seen them since early December
Tried them out and the results were very poor compared to all other Nitro cans I've had previously. Very little head generated. The device seems fine it's charged and I can hear it making the pulsing noise and light is on etc. Wondering if it might have been a bad batch.
Anybody else have similar experience?
First world problem at it's finest!
Nor a chance any of these ones will arrive before the start of the Rugby, but for anyone getting desperate, these ones are available from many sellers with EU shipping, and can take less than a week to arrive. They are also considered better units by almost everyone that has used them that I have spoken with or seen online. No doubt there are a few here that may dispute it, but still a majority opinion prefer them I would think. This is an example listing, maybe longer shipping than others or possibly covering in case of any delays. Most EU warehouses take under a week ime.
Plenty of the cans in Bray. No devices though!
