Remind me how many times he broke the rules, bullied people and got the sack -

It's almost like we have known we have a problem to fix for a long time and sat back and done nothing about it and now need to sort it fast but have no idea where, what and how to do just that. -
I’m not going to watch the video as these guys sound like proper cocks. I hate the whole pulling stunts just for clicks and views mentality. I’m quite glad it’s so difficult to get in without a ticket and I’m sure GFL do all they can to clamp down on these operations. I love the festival and I’ve been going when i can for a long time but this year i was the only one of our fairly large group not to get a ticket. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t consider (for a very short time) trying to get in by other means but in the end I decided it just wasn’t worth it. It’s a decision I’m glad I made no matter how hard it was not being there. -
Wouldn't be surprised if they still had a "Pyramid Headline or we don't turn up" mindset tbh. -
We have access to MDUs for events. We have to book them in with our preferred brewer, (Heineken at the moment.) They usually loan them to us for free, come out and set them up etc. I've used an MDU that we borrowed once, but it was only a 6 pint one, similar to the one below (although not identical) and definitely seemed slower than the ones in use at Glastonbury. The workings of it, up until the actual MDU itself, were identical to a normal cellar setup, gas and product into a coupler, then cellar buoy, then python, then MDU. Each nozzle on the MDU got it's own line within the python, but I think there was only 3 cellar buoys, so 2 lines each. I doubt a bigger MDU would work like this though, probably a much bigger line feeding all nozzles, otherwise there'd need to be a lot of cellar buoys. But I don't know about the bigger ones to be honest, so maybe they do work the same. I can't answer your question though I'm afraid. But it sounds plausible. Actually higher pressure is more likely to cause excess head from what I understand. I've never experienced it, but apparently if the pressure is too high throughout an entire vessel / container, (keg in our case) then by the time you get to the last quarter of that keg, the top layer of beer will become saturated with CO2, then as you dispense this, the final quarter of the keg, it will be nothing but foam. But like I said, this shouldn't happen, because a regulator should prevent this, and I've never experienced it. As far as empty kegs go, there are several methods to prevent gas continuing to fill the line. We used to use a simple manual float system, like this... This is what is called a 'Cellar Buoy.' When the beer runs out, the float drops, and blocks the gas from entering the lines. When you connect a new barrel you simply refill or bleed the cellar buoy (by pushing down on the top.) This means you don't get any excess foam in between barrels. Now we use a fancy electrical system called 'smart dispense' which not only serves this function, but automatically bleeds itself when you connect a new barrel, and also monitors temperature and flow readings to ensure quality is maintained.
