Corn Sugar Keg priming amount/time....

[mikesalvo]

Im thinking about priming a keg with corn sugar. ive scoured the inyterwebs big time, and came up with a million different answers.

How much corn sugar should I use to prime a 5 gallon keg of Belgian Wit. Also, how long will this typically take to reach carbination.

Ive also read that it creates a more yeasty beer. Is this only true for the first few glasses? Thoughts?

The rule of thumb is about half of the priming sugar used for bottling would be bulk primed in a keg. As far as the more yeasty flavor, I'd think that once carbed, the first pour or two would be the sediment at the bottom and then clear clean tasting beer.
