Update: I left the keg at room temperature for 10 days, The beer is now clean and without off flavors. From now on I will let the keg sit for a week at room temperature before force carbonation. Thank you for all the help!

I can understand the logic, when you give just a bit of sugar the main purpose is to wake the yeast to do the cleaning. I think the yeast will use the sugar and any O2 that was dissolved in the tranfers. Since I went for kegging I have been drinking green beer, I really dont care the extra...

I really have air going in the fermenter when I open the lid, this really could be the problem, but when I was bottling didn´t notice because the conditioning had cleaned the acetaldehyde. I will try to fill the fermenter with CO2 before could crash. But after I keg I will let the keg sit at...
