Hey All,
I have brewed 2 batches that I have moved into 5 liter mini-kegs.I followed all the directions,fermenting 3 weeks etc.racked it to the mini,added 1 level tablespoon of corn sugar,put the bung in and allowed it to condition for over 8 weeks.When I tapped it,there was no carb at all.WTF.Did anyone have any similar problems? I paid like $60+ bucks for the system plus 12 bucks each for the MT kegs. Hope I don't have to shuck the whole lot.BTW,all my bottled brews are carbed correctly,but I would like to have a carbonated "Draft style" beer do drink also.Is the CO2 that comes from the little cartridges supposed to be all the carbonation for this set-up? Thanks in advance for all your comments.
