I'd like to get a keg setup some day (just to force-carb, I'd like to then bottle it), but that costs money and I really can't justify spending what it requires to get a good keg system.
So my cheap plan is to carb the beer using priming sugar in the keg to get the whole batch done at once. Then I'd dispense the full keg into bottles all at once, in about a 30 minute window. Corny kegs arent bad, but the co2 setup for dispensing can get costly. Would it be ok to use air to dispense the keg into bottles? It wouldn't be in contact with air for long, and I already have a good compressor/regulator setup in my shop, so I can easily get 3-4psi to the keg.
I'd like to do this rather than carb in-bottle because I give away more beer than I drink at home and I like things to look as professional as possible. If I can do away with the yeast sediment in the bottles I'd be thrilled.
