silly question: sweetening at carbing time?

dragongreen · 01-24-2011, 05:09 AM

hello i made some cider but it's very dry
i'm planning to carb it in kegs.
can i add some sugar in the kegs right before carbing it?
i know there is a risk of refermentation but if i keep it cool and drink
it quickly i should be alright? besides i can monitor the increase in pressure with a gauge.
or is that cheatin' ?

thanks

It's not cheatin'. I think you'll be fine if you keep the kegs refrigerated.
