I have a 5 gallon batch that is about to finish. I am entering it into a homebrew competition at the end of the month. The homebrew competition requires that the beer be bottled (3 bottles for the competition). The rest I want to keg for my own enjoyment. If I bottled 2.5 gallons of it and keg the other 2.5 gallons will force carbonating work the same. When the keg is half filled there is much more headspace obviously...can I still just set it to 30psi and leave overnight and it will be carbonated the same as if it were full? Anyone thats ever carbonated a keg that wasn't full please help me out if you can. Thanks.
