Wanted some advice to make sure I kegged correctly.
My ESB finished fermenting about a week ago. I decided to keg it today. It fermented at 65 degrees.
Going off my software it says I should carb it with approx 1.2 vols of co2. The calculator say that equals aprrox 6.5.psi.
So I racked the ESB into the keg(everything is sanitized) locked the lid down and hooked up my co2 line. Put some pressure in the keg then purged it... did that a few times. Finally brought the pressure up to approx 6.5 psi. Stuck the whole thing back into my chest freezer which is still at 65 degree.
1. Did I do the process correct?
2. How long do I leave it like that till its ready?
3. Do I need to adjust the pressure anymore (depensing)?
Thanks for any advice.
