Oh man if you haven't used a beer gun, go get one!! Well worth the investment, saves so much time and clean up and oh jeez just better in every aspect

I indeed used a beer gun and am keeping the bottles cold. I have a beer sampling December 15th and want to be positive my beer won't be flat by that time

Hi I have a question regarding longevity of carbonation in beer that is fully carbed from a keg (only CO2): simply, how long will my beer stay carbonated in the bottles if I'm bottling pre-carbed beer? My only bottling experience is with priming sugar and old fashioned homebrew bucket bottling...

My main concern is that my beer won't be carbonated for this scholarship benefit in one week. I've got an Oktoberfest and a Pilsner kegged and "chilling" at about 39-42F and for the beginning of this second day, CO2 at 28-30psi. I didn't add priming sugar to the kegs. Tomorrow I am...

No the beer has been bottled since June and there is no carbonation. I doubt there was much carbonation in the keg before I bottled. I am either going to take the regular amount and just divide the total amount of priming solution by the number of bottles and use an exact amount for each...

I had a kegging accident where I forgot to keep the beer cool before I bottled from the keg with CO2. First time only error :( I have no local homebrew store that carries these "drops" and was wondering if there was a scientific formula of some sort that I could whip up my own batch of...

So are you insinuating the bottled beer won't be carbonated at all then? Is there no hope?

Ah, well yes the kegs were room temp the entire time. Either way, no carbonation in the bottles. Without kegging I know it needs ~14-21 days to get carbonation to where it should be. Does this apply to bottling with CO2 as well? If so I may just need to wait longer for the bottles to condition.

Yeah, well when I siphoned the fermented beer into the kegs, I added priming sugar. Let it sit for a few days then added CO2 and eventually bottled about 2 weeks later

Hey guys, still new to the kegging/bottling process. Have 2 cases of bottles beer from a keg without carbonation. Added priming sugar to the beer upon kegging and also had CO2 pumping in during the kegging process (foamed a few bottles up). Any suggestions?

I'll try that out '37' - thanks for the advice!

Ooh, no I only have CO2 going to the keg... this seems like it may be an issue! Tell me more --

Yeah there's pressure in the keg - it's been pressurized for 2 days now, and the beer gun doesn't work even if it's not in the bottle. Gonna let it sit for a bit longer, but didn't know if there was an easy fix for this or perhaps the pressure isn't up to snuff?

Short story: Got the beers kegged, CO2 hooked up and carbonated the beer, but when I hook up the beer gun, the beer runs into the line a little, then when I press the trigger, no beer shoots out. Any help? Thanks.

Yeah it get's compacted but I want to be able to drink from the bottle sometimes without pouring in a glass, or if I transport it, don't want to worry about it kicking up. That's my basic gripe with it.

I love everything about that picture <3 So would you say that a filtration system is basically unnecessary?

So do you keg unfiltered beer? How does that work when you pour from the tap? Is it "sediment-free"?

Hello my fellow brewers! I am tired of bottling beer and having to struggle with sediment. With that being said, I am looking for small scale (under $500 if possible) equipment to filter the junk out and keg. Does anyone have any suggestions or preferred products they can enlighten a...

Yeah he asked me about it 2 weeks ago and I ordered ingredients right away but it took the company 11 days to process so I basically got effed over. Thanks for the advice tho :)
