So I just started kegging and I kegged by second beer (Pale Ale). Being new to kegging and in a rush when Kegging the beer, I realized late last night (while watching youtube videos) that I had jacked my keg configuration all up.
I had put the long metal tube (that sucks the beer out of the Keg) under the "In" hose adapter for the Gas. And I had put the small little metal tube under the "out" for where the liquid comes out. Not thinking and being in a hurry I force carbed at 30 PSI (Yes it sounded bubbly and for some reason I didn't think about it) and let it sit in the fridge. For around 24 hours. After going downstairs last night and releasing the pressure, swapping the configuration to be correct, I took a sample of the beer out to try.
The beer was obviously pretty much all foam (but to be honest tasted like a Pale Ale with Guinness head but little carbonation on the beer itself :rockin. My question is, will this beer be ruined? I cranked it back up to 20psi and left if it in the fridge. Will it settle down and carb out?
The beer sat in the primary fermenter for right around 4-5 months but to be honest tastes great. (we recently had a baby and time slips by really fast) But I was just curious if this beer will carb up and pour right after the kegging fustercluck that occurred.
Let me know your thoughts.
