what does 30/70 do to lager
It's more of a case of what it doesn't do, and that is "hold the gas in solution". So as the container is used Co2 will leave the Lager causing it to taste flat towards the bottom of the container.
Would an airlock in one of the pipes explain over-use of gas? We are a small bar with a decent throughput but am a bit concerned that we are using a 70/30 gas cannister every 3 days or so.
Depending on many variables Gas Pumps e.t.c. A 30/70 gas cylinder, yet again depending on its size should dispense between 8 - 13 50Litre containers approx. If you think you are using a lot of gas you should put a call in to tech services to make sure.
Wot gas do I use with Stella
Co2 or 60/40 Mixed gas
what gas should i use on draught guinness
30/70 Mixed Gas
How can I tell from the Pressure Regulator if it's set for 70/30, 60/40 or 50/50? And what happens if I used 70/30 on a lager?
It is possible to connect the wrong mixed gas bottle to a mixed gas regulator it is recommended you read this article.

Recently the Becks Vier has been pouring with a ridiculously large amount of head. We run the Becks off of CO2 and the other two lagers, Stella and Staropramen, off a 60/40 mix. Is it worth trying the Becks with 60/40 or is there another solution?
Firstly, provided your beer line is clean, the keg of Becks is being sold within at most a week, all cooling systems and gas pressures are correct, then you should not have a problem. The gas of choice for lagers is always CO2. Mixed gas 60/40 can be used with good results. Because of the reduced amount of CO2 in the mixed gas it can in some circumstances prevent fobbing. So if all dispense factors are within spec then maybe you should try mixed gas.
what gas pressure is required to dispense draught guinness
If the gauge is showing less than 32psi you should call out Tech Services to adjust it.
Just started working full-time in a pub. The lady who showed me how to change the kegs didn't tell me to switch off the gas first. Just hold the lever handles up when taking them off the old kegs and then push them back down onto the new kegs. And then turn the things on the plastic bit on the wall!! Is this the correct way?!! I'm worried it isn't cos when I tried to change Belhaven Best today it sprayed all over me!!! Help!
Best practice is to turn off the gas when changing a keg. This will help prevent what happened to you but you should also lift the handle up fully because there will still be some gas left in the line.
if you have two beer pumps but only one is connected and the gas runs to both, will it leak
When you say one is connected do you mean "in use"? There should be a shut off valve to switch off the supply of gas to each gas pump. However if you mean you have one gas regulator feeding two gas pumps then you should call tech services to isolate the pump that isn't in use. If not you could get an airlock in that pump and it will keep pumping till the gas bottle is empty.
what gas should i use for becks vier?
Depending on your service provider but its usually Co2
what is 50/50 gas used for in a cellar
Lager and Ciders
should I hear a hiss from my GAS BOTTLE
No,you should not hear hissing from your gas cylinder. There may be a slight noise if the cylinder is in use and your dispense equipment is being used. This is just the sound of the valve allowing gas to replenish tthe kegs that are in use.
If the gas bottle is full and not connected and the top valve on the cylinder is properly closed and hissing can be heard then probablly the cylinder is faulty. Put it to one side in a well ventilated area and contact your supplier for a replacement. If the cylinder is connected to your gas system and hissing can be heard then quite possibly the washer that fits on the high pressure hose gas connection or the main reducing valve if it is the type that fits directly on to the gas cylinder may be damaged or missing. Check this and if you have been instructed on how to fit or replace these washers replace them. If the hissing continues ventilate the area possibly leaving the cellar door open then turn the gas off and ring technical services.

What gas pressure should john smiths be at
Depends on some variables, but generally 35psi of 30/70 mixed gas. However, I wouldn't recommend you try adjusting this pressure your self, better to get Tech services in to check things over,as this can be dangerous.
Should I turn off the gas every night?
Yes, in case you have a small gas leak. It is always a good idea to switch off the gas on slow moving lagers and ciders because they will slowly absorb Co2 gas as you reach the end of a container and begin to fob.
How do I adjust the gas pressure I have frothy beer
You should call the brewery technical services it is dangerous to adjust gas pressures if you do not know what you are doing. Temperature of the cellar and the distance to the tap have to be taken into account.
