So I got my cornies and I moved my Kolsch out of the secondary into a keg last night. I did not prime it.
I still don't have a regulator and fittings yet...but I'm close. I plan to let this keg age in the garage (39 degrees) for a couple more weeks anyway, but I'm wondering:
Once I get gas set up, can you give me the ABC's of doing a forced carbonation? Note that this keg has about 6 inches of head space (darn trub) if that makes a difference.
An also question: Will a keg of beer "condition" differently once it is force carbonated? I don't want to halt any flavor improvements by being impatient about carbonating. This is a Kolsch, and I understand that patience is a virtue.
Thanks...
