  This is silly. You can certainly do that. Just use a gallon to mix your priming sugar at

  And then the ref has to put up with everyone whining about it, because they don't realize that

  Yeast are not alcohol. Dropping out yeast by cold-crashing or waiting time before transfers
  does not drop the alcohol content of your beer. You will need sufficient yeast to bottle
  carbonate, but that...

  It takes AT LEAST 3 weeks at 70 F for the CO2 to dissolve back into the beer.
