I tried making a closed system transfer using my primary bucket. Didn't work as well as I hoped. I had air line going from my reg to the airlock gasket in the lid. I drilled a big hole in the lid to fit a carboy stopper. The hole in the stopper fit a racking cane. Line from the racking cane to the beer out of my keg. Just like a carboy system. It didn't seem to work all that well. Not sure if I did something wrong. I had the release valve open to let CO2 out of the keg to prevent back pressure. In theory it should have worked.
I noticed about 10 minutes into the transfer white flakes where in my air line. I didn't think much of it until a few minutes later I pulled the airline out of the bucket and white flakes came out of the tubing. It kept happening. Are these just liquid co2 flakes that didn't make it to a gas? I assume they would be ok in my beer.
