I don't do a lot of kegging but I recently bought a keg setup and a blichmann beer gun so that I could bottle with co2.
My first question pertains to stouts...I have a vanilla milk stout that I am about to be ready to bottle. What is my best bet in terms of carbing this guy.
Should I just carb with co2 and bottle as I do with my other beers.
Should I get beer gas? If so should I still force carb with co2 and then when filling the bottles switch to beer gas?
Suggestions please.
Also since I don't keg much I went with the procedure of kegging my beer, chilling it, pressurizing at 30 psi and shaking it on and off throughout the day. Then I leave it connected to co2 for another 12-24 hrs, equalize it to about 5 psi and bottle using the gun. Does this seem like a solid method. Again any suggestions greatly appreciated.
