So today i decided to rack my bavarian hefe to the keg as it was about that time. I planned on naturally carbing and added my corn sugar as needed
However todays process went terribly, the plastic hose clamp i used did almost nothing to stop air flowing into my transferring beer and i had to start my siphon several times before I could finish the transfer.
Since i am very worried now about oxygenated beer I was wondering if it might be able to try and purge the oxygen out of the beer through possibly a force carb method or some other use of my CO2 tank. I loved the taste of the beer as it came out of secondary and it would be a shame to see this beer go bad.
While im on the subject, does anyone have any other tips on how to better connect your racking cane and siphon tube? Because although using the clamp normally works i never want to have to go through this again.
Cheers
