Hello All, I'll thank you in advance for any feedback you can provide.
OK here is my concern, I'm an extract brewer and love brewing the Belgian ales, Abbys & Trappists. And I have only bottled it in past with exceptional results. I am setting up a home keg system and am going full tilt, complete with micromatic tower w/Koolrite glycol cooling module& Perlick 425SS faucets, my own glycol recirculating cooling system, I mean the bees knees.
So what IS my problem? -- I have been reading that the Belgian ales condition best in bottles for best flavor. Bummer. So what are best ales to keg with?? I like high to medium gravity recipes, have never tried a lager, maybe it's time? I hate to spoil a perfect beer that doesn't condition well in keg, and only want positve experience with home keg system.
Have a great weekend All.
