Nitrogen supplier in Denver

As a nitrogen supplier in Denver we do two things: deliver food-grade nitrogen in cylinders on the same route as your CO2 from our E 51st Ave depot, or install a NITRO-DRAUGHT generator that makes nitrogen on site from compressed air so the deliveries stop.

Nitrogen gas in Denver: what it actually does in a bar

Nitrogen pushes beer without dissolving into it the way CO2 does, which is why long draw lines and nitro stouts depend on it. Blended with CO2, it lets a Denver bar run a long line at the pressure the altitude needs without over-carbonating the beer on the way to the faucet.

The other uses on our list are packaging and product blanketing, where an inert gas sits over a product to keep air off it. Nitrogen is inert in these applications, which is the whole point.

A nitrogen tank in Denver or a generator: the crossover

Cylinders are the sensible start. Once a site is swapping nitrogen tanks often, a NITRO-DRAUGHT generator usually wins: it produces nitrogen from clean compressed air you already have, and comes in three models from its manufacturer, Fizz Dog.

The assessment runs the numbers on your real consumption. If occasional use means cylinders stay cheaper, that is what we recommend.

  • Food-grade nitrogen cylinders sized to your draw
  • Same route, schedule and invoice as your CO2
  • On-site generation by membrane, three NITRO-DRAUGHT models
  • CO2 and nitrogen blending held to plus or minus 2 percent

Who uses nitrogen across the Denver metro

Taprooms with nitro handles, restaurants running long draft lines from a basement cooler, and producers who package or blanket product. If your nitrogen comes from a different vendor than your CO2 today, putting both on one account is the simplest saving we can offer, and it costs nothing to check.

Altitude and the nitrogen blend

At 5,280 feet, Denver regulators run about 2.5 psi above a sea-level chart. The nitrogen fraction in a blend lets a long line run at the pressure it needs without forcing extra CO2 into the beer, which is why long-run Denver bars tend to need blended gas sooner than the same setup at sea level would.

Common questions

No. Our nitrogen is food-grade gas, delivered in cylinders or generated on site. If you need cryogenic liquid nitrogen, that is a different kind of supplier.

High purity food grade, with the exact specification set to your application when the generator is specified.

Yes. Each site is measured on its own usage, and one Territory Sales Manager covers the whole account.
