This is my first post but have been lingering through the forums for some time now. I brewed a batch of high gravity IPA, but only ended up with 3.3 or so gallons by the end of everything. During transferring the beer between fermenters I got a chance to sample it, and found it to be excessively bitter. Also, I will be using a keg for the first time... yeehaw!
So heres my questions:
a.) Can I add corn sugar to the keg AND use force carbonation at the same time?
If i can do this...
b.) How much corn sugar should I use for only 3.2-3.2 gallons of beer?
(I know you can just add priming sugar to the keg, apply a small amount of pressure to seal the top, then let it sit like you do with bottles. I just want to add sugar to decrease the bitterness...)
OR...
c.) Is there something else besides add corn sugar that i can add to decrease the excessive bitter taste? (I love bitter IPA's, but messed this one up)
What would you do?
Thanks!
