So, I just got a new Nitro set up for my kegs on Christmas and I'm ready to go. One question remains in my mind, if I try a beer on Nitro and I decide I don't like it, can I go back to CO2 on that same keg? My gut says yes, but I was wondering if anyone had experience going back and forth between CO2 and Nitro (mixed gas) on the same keg of beer?

Yep. No problem. The nitrogen is barely (if at all) soluble in the beer. It's just there to provide the pressure you need to get through the faucet.

Thanks for the confirmation!

Negative. Any kegs should be given to your brewing buddy for proper disposal rather than mixing gases.

If brewing buddy would stop by more than once every 6 months he could drink some.

Uh oh, sounds like the Bromance is fizzling out
