If you chill when using sugar, you would kill the yeast and have flat, sweet beer
Just remember to use plenty of keg lube and hit it with 30-40 psi after purging the O2. You need that pressure to ensure a good seal on the lid.
Why would you purge the O2? Don't the yeasties need the O2 to start working again and turn sugar into alcohol and CO2?
I'm about to step in to the kegging game in a month or two. I was wondering if I use the priming sugar to carbonate, can I leg the kegs down to slide under a bed or store on a deep shelf instead of standing upright?
