So I am new to kegging. Just picked up my system. Don't have a cooler all figured out but it is coming.
I thought that I could use corn sugar to prime my latest batch that has been in fermenter for two weeks. Then after it was fully conditioned in the keg (say in 4 to 6 weeks at room temperature) I would chill it and drink it.
The fellow I bought my kegging system from said this was a very bad idea. First, I should only force carbonate my beer - no priming with sugar. Second, once it is force carbonated it has to be chilled or will go bad.
I am sure this has been covered but would like some comments from you guys.
thanks, Mike
