. I truely love great beer but I tend to lean twords the healthy side of things and dont drink it that often. But now that I think about it if I had 4 corny kegs filled with great homebrew I would probably drink it a lot more often.
Hang Glider said:you can certainly unhook the CO2 - if you have no leaks, it will be fine. When you draw off a pint, however, you disturb the equilibrium between the beer and the head space. As the head space increases, it will pull carbonation out of the beer until they equalize again.
So - if you're not drinking - then yes, after its carbed, you can disconnect the CO2 - but if you're drinking - (reducing the volume, increasing the head space), you'll need to leave it connected or your beer will go flatter with each pour.
