Beer Engines and Bag in a Box

Bottling home brew is, if you’re making any kind of volume, a lengthy and tedious process. Based purely on the volume of posts on home brew groups on Facebook, I would guess that the most popular alternative way of storing and dispensing home brew has probably got to be the corny keg. There’s way less cleaning and sanitising involved and they are much quicker to fill. Indeed, commercial craft beer generally tends to be served from the keg. I personally prefer cask beer and so I was super excited to see a post a while back where a chap had hooked up a beer engine to something I had never really heard of – bag in a box – to produce what looked very similar to a pint of delicious cask ale.
