- Excuse the quality, It was dark. The kitchens dark etc etc . But sure look if someone else gets value out of the experience so be it. Plenty of other stuff to waste ones times on ...
The hero we didn't know we needed, and definitely didn't deserve. Thank you anonymous Guinness man.

Yip works a treat I usually pin 2 at a time & put one back in the fridge, so you always have one ready instead of waiting for pressure release every time,
This surge was the best investment of my life
New Years DIY surge, thanks to your good self! Happy 2023!
Absolutely Brilliant ! This guy values a proper Guinness ! Love it !!
not all hero's wear capes
After all that effort I was already drinking my second pint 😂
Good interesting video in the art of a proper pint of plain from the comfort of your own home. I must give that a go myself... 😁
By the way, the dishwasher tip is absolutely bang on. Can’t believe the difference.
Wow I’m blown away only bought these cans draft cans as I couldn’t find surge cans anywhere then googled nitro surge on draft cans and this video popped up just had one of the best home pints I’ve ever tasted works a treat the five lamps I salute 🫡 you sir well done
Cheers lad, great advice. Also, the first time I’ve heard an Irishman not complaining about his Guinness 😂
Worked a charm first time I done it, 2nd and 3rd the pin shot out due to the pressure
Great idea! I might try this with Kilkenny Irish Red Ale as their cans have the same Nitro widget activation mechanic. Always found the general widget cans to be really fidgety and to be not of a very good consistency. Some very good tips for cleaning the pint glass. Thanks for the video - Sláinte!
The quailty of the cans is making a huge difference. I bought three slabs of the big cans at christmas first was amazing second was very very hit and miss third so far is bit better. All done same method not to cold or to warm either. Guinness via can is very tempermental in general.
I found tesco changed their cans. I'm thinking some of the slabs are different factory I had one slab which was great and one not good. Checked the can top and they had completely different pull rings and design on top. Might have been for UK Market theres some pasteurisation that may be done for different markets.
@@thefivelamps1961 it’s 100% the pasteurisation which for many markets is legally required. It would be interesting to see your technique poured next to another can poured from can without surger to see immediate difference!
Is it just me or are they all abit flat? Buying mine in England mind you. Good creamer don’t get me wrong, but just not getting any carbonisation
I heard the nitrosurge cans will not be available in the US. I bought a nitrosurger and a believer in the nitrosurge with regular Guinness cans. The pin prick works perfect. Just take time but well worth it. The frothy head is a little over 1 inch thick and if done correctly no bubbles on the head. I shit you not gentlemen.
Also the pourer on the nitrosurge has to be on the same side as where the open tab is. Very important. Cheers lads.
Maith an Fear! Bleedin' cheek of them chargin for the surger then extra again for the cans. G-Hacks ftw! Slainte!
I had to turn away in sorrow after that spill...
How the hack could you spill it with the nozzle?! I don't know. Namastè.
Very nice looking pint👍I can get just as good a pint with regular Guinness cans and nitro surge device too but I just make sure I have the cans in the fridge for 24 hours minimum,pint glass chilled in the fridge for 15 to 20 mins and same result,I don't use the pin and dont need nozzle of nitro surge device touching the glass.
why does the surger instructions say NOT to touch the nozzle off the glass ?
Sorry could you please enlighten me on why we should use the pin to release the gas before we could actually use the Nitrosurge device. Thanks !
I've lost my left eye trying that pin pressure release! Luckily I still have my right eye and an excellent British accent left! Enchante and prostate!
If you poor a tin of coke into a dirty pint glass it goes flat very quickly it is a good example of how important it is to have a clean glass. Like your video by the way 😍
I'd say this looks better than the surger can.
Doing gods work here.
starting the video with the hand clean is how you know its the real deal
Best one yet
I’ll be giving that ago when I get my Surger cheers my friend.
Maybe it's being asked before but can I pin prick 4 cans at once and have them ready for pour out of the fridge.
Nice video cheers
I am pinning mine at the moment and it tastes quite watery. Maybe the pin is too large and nitrogen is released too fast?
Don’t know if you realised but the surger went off before the last pour. It doesn’t stay on for long
It's not supposed to be in for the 2nd part as it doesn't need surging
Cheers! Definitely going to try it later
Thanks
Same method apply with the 440ml cans ? I pretty sure I did the pin technique correctly (in terms of no leakage from the hole) but pint was flat
can you use the guinness origial cans
Now I have to buy a nitrosurge and some mothers milk just to give one to a friend and watch as he opens it and say, what the hell are you doing ????? As I open mine like you did, hahahaha
Definitely giving this a go the surger cans are more than a pint in my local
Where are you getting a pint of Guinness for under £2
Yip, works a treat!
That darn MUP tax is ruining the craic. Got 24 cans of the 538 ml for €18 in Lidl right before it. Them were the days.
Why do the instructions tell you not to press the nozzle against the glass? I know you advise otherwise and give a reason for it, but the instructions state not to 🤔
awful lot of fu*&ing around for a beer
Jesus that looks proper will definitely try this
Life's too short mate, just drink the f****r......
Is the tailors pin just the same as sewing pins with ball glass head on the top?
Does it taste same as surger cans or any difference? They're some chancers if they just changed the graphics of the cans but no actual surger tech in them. Charging double price for the same thing.
Surger & Widget cans taste the exact same to me, Surger pints just looked better but with this method they look pretty much the same too
I think the normal wigget can tastes better than the surger cans. Good demo btw 👍
I found the surger cans to taste nicer compared to this method, but this method is better than straight from the can
Great vlog. 👍
Any chance you would make a video on how to wash and dry the glass
What is the purpose of the "widget" inside ?
Nice one! When completing the second pour did you intentionally not switch the Nitrosurge device on again?
It switches itself back on
I've done both. Find your middle..sometimes I do sometimes I don't. Yet to see of it really has an impact. I do think though it strengthens the final head.
You don’t use the surging for the last pour. That’s why the surger times out after 30 seconds.
Cheers my man, was just batin a dart in and wondering what I was doing wrong 😂 mini explosion and wondering why it came through the surger as if it was the widget
Dart . Love it ! Needs must I suppose. The bigger the pin the more chance of bursting the seal on the widget. Try your best to get tailors pins. The missus had loads in a little box.
That's not a full size pint glass,I tried it with a Guinness glass and it didn't fill the glass so there was no dome.Still a nice pint using this technique 👍
have you ever considered that you might have had a smaller can?
@@jamesmernagh9624 I didn't know you could get smaller cans so no, that must have been why there was no dome my mistake. 👍
@@joypad0136 you likely had the more common 440ml cans, guy in video used 538ml cans which fill the pint glass perfectly. Another option is to get a 440ml guinness glass 👍
U only get the dome with the 558ml guiness draught cans which u have to import from Ireland or the nitrosurge cans which are also 558ml. But both going to be expensive. Still a decent pint with the 538mls though
Where'd you get the 538ml cans here in Ireland? Im in wicklow and can only find 500ml. Pin trick works fine for the nitrosurge device, but always a few MM short from top of regular pint glass!
same in italy, 500ml cans....
top tip
Makes a decent looking pint. However it doesn’t taste anywhere near as nice as the nitro surger cans. Serious difference in taste ! Also you should press the button for the second pour too or it doesn’t surge the last of the can.
There is no need to press the button for the second pour. Guinness say so themselves!
If you surge the second pour the head will be too big
lost water all time, hey, are you mad.... ? could you see, that the water wated
for many times..
Fab advice! Sláinte
Unintentional asmr
I have to get my hands on a nitro surger.. And taste this.. i HATE opening a can of guinness and there is ZERO head after a pour... happens sometimes
Slainte! Pity in Italy we have 0.5 lt cans not 0.538 so you basically can't get the dome nor the nitrosurge.... :\
Looks GOOD mate,need that surger🍺🍺
They were nice when they came out there rotten now don't know what's happened these cans I find the draught as good
All for a dome. Lmao 🤣
Seems like a lot of work for a drink lol but I bet its worth it
Or just pour it like a normal person and drink it. That is what i do rofl
Answering the heading of this video how to get best value out of Guinness nitro . Just drink the fucking stuff . Value for your can head up north
It's a bit of faffing about to get a pint mate
Sure look., Life is faffing around be boring if everything was easy :)
Genius il give that a go ..24 pack in Tesco 20 quid 😅👍
Don't forget 4 degree fridge overnight. Vital or the dome won't happen. Too cold and the head will be thin.
Telling us how to clean a glass wtf
I don’t taste any difference in the nitro surge and regular cans to be honest. Gimmick device
Gimmick tongue of urs….. Only messin, but the taste is supposed to stay the same, the difference is the creaminess of the pint. Pint is way creamier with the device no question. And far more consistent with pours.
@Dathi O'Dowd Maybe slightly more cream . Shtick levels remain the same too. The whole 2 part pour is a gimmick too in my opinion 😂
@Kyle Byrne Fair enough.Personally I think it’s a marketing gimmick the double pour. Sure your fella the Guinness Guru could hardly tell the difference between any of the variations doing a blind taste test.
@Kyle Byrne yeah I mean in the pub too. That is true. I’m happy enough with the regular cans too . Can’t see me buying any nitrosurge cans . Will give the pin trick another few goes and compare again
@@theorgazoid4918 I've seen that video. He also couldnt taste the difference between a Can and an actual poured pint from the bar so go figure :P
I can use a dirty glass and there's nothing wrong with my pints.
Just buy a proper surger can lol 😂
They cost three times as much
Indeed. Alot of money tbh for little return
The wrong can
The wrong pint glass.
Pointless.
