I have filled a 1/6 barrel Sanke with homebrew. I removed the spear and siphoned the beer in to the keg and then replaced everything. I have chilled the beer down to 38 degrees. As far as I understand, I just need to set the regulator to 11 psi(for 2.5 volumes) and then hook up the coupler and engage it to carbonate the keg. Is this right? I have only used cornies before this. Will it take the same amount of time? about a week? Thanks
 
Beer is beer. Co2 is co2. And psi is psi.

The style of keg or the fittings used to transfer the pressurized gas are just a plumbing issue, they shouldn't have any affect on the process.

So, yeah, just follow the same procedure you use with cornies....
