Not to hijack the thread, but I just started kegging myself, and i read the kegging thread located
here and
here seem to indicate that when keg carbing, you should set it to 30 psi or so for 2 to three days, purge the tank, and then drop to serving pressure and the beer can be ready inside of 4 days.
My understanding, is that if you are going to force carb, you should still set it to 30 psi, and every few hours roll the keg, shake, etc... to fill the headspace with more co2 to carb with, eventually causing the beer to absorb enough co2 to carb it. I am hoping that I am understanding this properly, since I have 2 kegs currently being force carbed this way with the intentions of serving them this weekend. I do realize that there is a slight risk of over carbing, but I think that as long as i monitor the situation, dropping the psi as needed I should be able to be good to go for Saturday....Am I wrong?
