New to kegging. Hopefully getting away from bottles. I brew only IPA's.
I need some help here understanding what I can do with 2 kegs 1 regulator and one tank.
I do Not want to get a manifold or a dual regulator. But do want to have another keg ready for when 1 is close to empty.
Please Tell me if this, or some form of this example below is possible?
Example:
I envision that I have one keg in fridge carbonated and delicious and sitting at serving temperature and pressure with the CO2 tank hooked up. (this is a for sure)
Then i have a new batch of brew done fermenting and done dry hopping,
I now fill the 2nd keg with the new batch and have to pull off the C02 from 1st keg and fill 2nd keg with 30 psi and purge 3 Times. Then fill 4th time to 30 psi and leave in the fridge for 2 days at 36 degrees, with C02 disconnected as i need to serve keg #1.
but ON keg #2 i must make sure I top it off to 30 psi until it's time to move in to service?
Then purge and pressurized to servicing psi?
-----------
Or would keg #2 be stored at room temperature with 30 psi until it's time to carb it and chill it?
