I made a Chocolate Porter and everything was going too good. I hit my OG and FG within a point or two. There was more trub than I expected so I only got about 4.5 gallons in the keg, but only .25 gallons short of target. I didn’t cold crash so the wort was at 70 degrees. I hooked up the Co2 and set it at 30 psi and shook it, brought it up to 30 psi and repeated this about 6 times before I put it in the kegerator. The following day I realized that I had forgotten to purge the air before I started to force carbonate. I let most of the pressure off and then set the regulator to 12 psi.
Before I force carbed the keg, I force carbed a plastic bottle and put it in the fridge for about 6 hours to cool. It tasted real good in spite of the fact that it had only been aged for 2 weeks in the primary and 6 hours in the fridge. I thought, it can only get better now.
Did I ruin ruin a good beer?
