I just bought 4 kegs (first kegs for me) and I have a pumpkin ale that is ready to go. But the problem is that I don't have a CO2 tank and regulator. I might be able to keg a good deal on these locally so it is worth my while to wait (1.5 weeks max).
So I was thinking of just priming in the keg (I would like to free the better bottle for apfelwein). I have the beer cold (35F) right now, so I was thinking of racking it into a cold keg with the priming sugar and then letting it warm up to room temperature, the release of the CO2 would put it under some pressure to seal it well and by the time I get my tank I will have carbonated and conditioned beer ready to drink. Any problems with this?
Or I could just wait.:cross:
