Good idea to split-carb the batch. There is definitley a taste difference. Force carbing does not kick up additional yeast and is therefore a cleaner tasting beer.

Once you get your kegging down, you can move to bottling from the keg pretty easily. A lot of us keggers like to bottle off a six pack or more for later consumption / sharing.

Your wort will always be darker than your finished beer in the glass. Don’t worry.

Extract beers will always be darker than all grain beers…no big issue.


Congrats on your new-born.
