Hi all,
I am new to kegging, and I am limited to naturally carbing with corn sugar and dispensing with a co2 charger. Not an ideal setup, I know, but I am determined to make it work. My first batch pours with a nice foamy head, but no bubbles in the beer. Here's what I did, please tell me how I can do better next time:
- Racked finished beer to keg with enough corn sugar for 2.5 volumes co2
- purged head space with co2 and sealed with a little pressure
- let sit at room temp for two weeks
- purged most, but not all pressure (there was a very loud hiss when I pulled the release valve)
- put in fridge for a day, now serving beer with nice head but no bubbles
