I've been splitting 11 gallon batches between bottles and kegs lately and I don't like how my bottle conditioned beers have been turning out. My kegged beer is always crisper and much much clearer. I'm playing with the idea of making a corny keg into a dedicated bright tank. I would cut 1/2" off the dip tube, add another dip tube in the gas in port cut with 4 inches cut off and a carbonation stone attached to the bottom.
I'd refrigerate the keg and carbonate at 12-14 psi then bottle directly from the keg. How long do you think it would take to carbonate this way? Commercial breweries carbonate overnight right? Is that possible at this scale?
