Cask Consumables
Every cask relies on a range of consumable components to ensure it can be filled, conditioned, vented and served correctly. Whether you’re packaging a traditional bitter, conditioning a mild, or serving real ale from a home bar setup, these small but essential items are the backbone of successful cask beer dispense.
Our range of cask consumables includes keystones, shives, soft spiles and hard spiles, helping brewers prepare casks, manage conditioning and control dispense with confidence. Suitable for both new and experienced brewers, these components are compatible with standard cask systems and are widely used throughout the brewing industry.
If you’re exploring cask ale for the first time, these are the parts that make traditional conditioning and serving possible. From venting excess CO₂ during maturation to sealing and tapping a cask ready for dispense, having the right consumables on hand ensures your beer reaches the glass in the best possible condition.
