Which Carbonation Dial setting should the Pinter be on?Updated 4 days ago

While your Pinter is in the Brewing Stage, the Carbonation Dial should be set to 5 for most of our styles. The correct setting for each brew will be specified in the Brewing Calendar and on our website. Do not adjust the dial during the brewing stage or while your beer is conditioning.

You can turn the Carbonation Dial down towards the end of tapping if the flow has slowed or stopped.

The higher the number on the Carbonation Dial, the more Co2 and pressure the Pinter holds onto, which in turn produces a more carbonated brew at the end. 

You may wish for certain styles of brews to be less carbonated than others so you are more than welcome to have the Carbonation Dial setting to another number, bearing in mind the lower it is the less carbonated it will be.
