Hi another newbie question here,
Can I bottle Beer that has already been carbonated in a keg. I want to make room for another batch but don't want this beer to go to waste. Can I run tube from the tap the the bottom of a bottle and fill them up, then cap em'? I know I don't want to dump the beer into the bottle because the CO2 will go into solution. But if i fill the bottle from the bottom up and then cap it will this hold the bubbles for a while? Would this hold carbonation the same as if I had bottled them using the sugar in the first place? Thanks for your help.:mug:
 
Our co-op force carbonates in corny kegs and we then bottle after that using beer guns. As long as there is a little foam pouring out when you cap it, there should be no issue with keeping the carbonation.
