    How long to age a beer before kegging?

    I usually age my beer in the keg, but I was wondering if I could age it in my fermenter? If I do it in my fermenter, what is the max time I could leave it in there?

    Question about Starsan

    I bought Starsan on the recommendation of several people on here. When I read the directions, it says to let the keg dry after using it. Do I need to do that or is it ok to dump it and keg my beer right after? I appreciate the help.

    Vomit Smell

    I just pulled my brew out of Secondary and siphoned it into my keg. Naturally, I had to sneak a taste before I kegged it. As I brought it to my mouth it smelled like vomit. Tasted fine and like beer, but the smell was really foul. Is this something that will mellow out as I age it to carbonate...
