In this episode of The 1895 Podcast, we’re joined by Taylor Anderson, Development Engineer at McDantim.
Anderson explains the technology behind mixed gas draught beer systems and the story of how McDantim came to develop it – beginning in the mid-1980s, when Guinness put out an open call for a gas blender that could keep up with demand from its pubs across Ireland and the UK.
We discuss what makes the perfect pint and how on-site blending benefits both drinkers and bar owners and why accuracy matters so much.
Anderson also explains how lessons learned in the beverage industry have taken McDantim’s technology into a much wider range of applications including welding, food packaging, heat treating and laser cutting, as well as refrigerant and CO2 mixes that replace sulphur hexafluoride in foundries.
The 1895 Podcast is a content-driven podcast for the global industrial gases business, bringing together topical news, views and analysis of the stories that matter in the industry.
