Upon researching the Kentucky Common, I read that it used to be kegged/barrled shortly before fermentation was finished, and I guess it carbonated itself like that? I also read on the barrels they had to put special iron bungs sometimes due to the high pressure.
Now, could this work with corny kegs? I know there will be some sediment in the bottom. Would it clog the posts or lines if I hook it up to gas at dispense pressure and try to draw it out until i get beer? If so, would it maybe work at a higher pressure to force it through the lines, or would it just be a bad idea in general? It would be cool to do it as close to how it used to be as possible, and to be able to drink it quicker. It was brewed as a cheaper, quick turnaround beer to be consumed fresh and quick. Just wondering if this would be a bad idea or if it could work. I have 3/16" beer lines btw. If it might clog the posts in a corny keg, would it work in a Sanke, or would that be a bad idea too?
I was also thinking about kegging it shortly before fermentation was finished, and then transferring to another keg, but wouldn't I lose carbonation that way? This is supposed to be a high carbonated beer. Thanks.
