Thank you Sir!
I am scouring craigslist for a used kegerator and Co2 setup for force carbing in 1 gallon kegs. A little unorthodox, but Im working with 1 gal batches while I experiment.
As far as stabilizing the final product..I am leaning towards chemical over filtration. Ie. Campden tab + K sorbate (or another preservative) before force carbing and serving.
I'm worried about this causing off flavors in the end product, I guess only one way to find out though!
Also considering heat pasteurizing w/ the dishwasher. I dont know whats best/easiest.
Ill have to give the filter sock on racking cane a shot, maybe ill try 5 or 10 microns just to clear it up a bit. So cold crash primary at target FG, and then rack w light filter onto campden/ksorbate, backsweeten to taste, force carb, then drink.
Open to all suggestions
Edit: Left jug is berry blend w champagne yeast, then 1.008 AJC w notty, then aging AJC notty on right
