Hi,
I'm a begginer at brewing beer and I have a few questions.
I read that after you cock the beer and after it has fermenated once you need to put the beer in a bottle with some corn suger for a second fermentaition.
I understand that the fermentation is done by using the oxigen in the bottle untill there is no more oxigen in the bottle and only CO2 is left in the bottle and than the CO2 is supposed to keep the beer from getting spoiled.
my question is how come when I open a keg in a pub and I use CO2 to push the beer to the tap the beer is getting spoiled aftert some time?
and another question: after I cocked the beer can I just put it inside a keg to fermenate and than after a while drink from it instead of transfering it to a fermentation tank and bottling after.?
thanks for your help.
