I finally just registered on the forum, but I have been reading for quite a while to figure some things out. But thanks to all the people who post and answer questions on here! The advice is amazing!
I just carbonated my first keg, and irish stout. Been brewing for a while, but always bottled. Finally took the plunge because I absolutely hate washing and sanitizing tons of bottles. Beer ended with an ABV of 4.2 so I force carbonated at 20 PSI for about 2 days, then dropped it down to about 8. Pulled my first draft off it today and other than a little leakage due to a loose connection, it was just about perfect! The flavor and carbonation level ended up great! I am thinking another day at 8 PSI and it will be great.
I found so much advice on here as I was a little unsure on what to do, so thanks again to everyone!
Next beer up is a brown ale!
So a question for you all, if you do force carbonation and have multiple kegs, do you just go the low and slow method or do you have a secondary regulator to be able to fast carb other kegs?
