How to pour beer from bottles, cans and tap
When you pour the beer into a glass 0,5 l, it does not matter where it is poured - in bottles, cans or tap. Also, no matter what form your glass. What really affects the filling process, so is the amount of carbon dioxide in the beer.
For example, the bright Indian ale (IPA) or Belgian ale foam a little more than a dark beer Stout or Porter, so you have to adjust to get the tip of the wonderful foam.
Hold the glass at an angle of 45 degrees
Take a clean glass and hold it at an angle of 45 degrees at the time of filling.
Fill the glass with the middle
Start filling a glass, down the neck of the bottle or the tap so that the beer is poured on the glass medium. No need to be cautious - if you pour too slow, do not get the top foam, and there will be a nice flavor that enhances the taste of beer.
When filled to half turn vertically
When you fill a glass half full, flip it vertically, and you will see how the foam is formed.
2-4 cm of foam
When you finish pouring in glass will be about 2-4 cm foam - ideal "beer head."
Too much
If you get too much foam, then you pour too fast or do not calculate the correct angle. If the top of the glass there are no foam, you poured too slow and take too steep an angle, not just turning the glass in the upright position.
Secret way, how to pour the perfect pint "dark nectar"
If you ever happen to pour quality beer from the tap, it is important to do so. Here are six steps of a professional brewer Fergal Murray, how to pour the perfect pint of currently "dark nectar."
a clean glass
Use a clean glass Weizen Glass - its design conceived specifically for this drink. In form it resembles a truncated elongated pear with a wide top and a narrow massive base. Weizen Glass perfectly preserves the color, taste and aroma of beer. In addition, it will help you find it easier to pour beer.
How to keep
Glass must be kept at 45 degrees. Instead of pouring until the middle of the glass, pour beer, until it reaches the level of the logo on the glass harp. If you use conventional glasses, it's about ¾ of the glass.
pour
When you pour a Guinness, slowly turn the cup in an upright position, and finish pouring the logo of the harp, for ¼ of the glass top.
defend
Bubbles will stream cascades down until the beer settles and gets its dark color.
foam tip
After the beer is spaced (a minute or so), add it by unscrewing the tap handle. Fill the glass so that there was a foam top. If you feel a charge of creativity, you can try to pour with shamrock foam, like a true Irishman.
Drink like a man
A man never looks at a glass of beer. Fergal explains that when you drink beer, your elbow must look up and away, and eyes - are directed into the horizon. If you drank a beer right, you'll see the line on the glass.
Pour properly and enjoy the real taste and aroma of your favorite drink.
