When racking to kegs from fermenter to force-carb and serve, does the pressure required to seat the lid (I use 25-30 to be sure no leaks) inhibit the effects of aging like you would in the bottle?
What if I kept the keg hooked to gas at 30 to carb it, will it still 'condition' under those pressures? Can yeast not do their job or will I create a keg bomb (rated for 130 psi, so I doubt) if racked too early?
Lastly, if all this is done in my fridge, which is in the 35-40 F range, will that prohibit conditioning/aging?
