Bottling from Keg

[madbird1977]

I have a couple of kegs I need to free up but they still have some tasty octoberfest and brown ale. I want to bottle up the remainder in both kegs and have questions on what I need to do.

So the beer is carbed already, I have a beer gun...well put "the gun" in my picnic tap and fill.

Do I need priming sugar/mixture in the bottles?

Any good step by step instructions?

Thoughts and advice are welcomed!

You should find all the info you need in this thread/sticky. And no you don't need to add any priming sugar/mixture in the bottles assuming it's already carbonated. As for step by step instructions, I simply follwed what others said in the previous mentioned thread.

I would recommend venting your keg, then dropping your psi to the 2/4 psi range, and then bottle away remembering to vent the bottle a couple of times during the filling process.

Then remember to turn your Co2 back up/on. I always forget that step, but I'm not the brightest bulb on the tree.

The BMBF worked great for me until I picked up a beer gun, which is super-easy to use. Good investment IMO.
