Any tips on bottling high ABV beers that have been barrel aged? Add extra yeast, ect… Thanks.
When you carbonate in kegs, and fill bottles from there, you don't need yeast for bottle carbonation.Yes sir, I do have kegs, but I've never counter pressure bottled. The beers are both slightly above 10% ABV. What kind of yeast do you go with in a bottling situation like this? Thank you for your response.
Use a #2 rubber stopper over your bottling wand/tube to just create a seal on the bottle opening.
Thanks for adding that. It's essential!it helps for the tube to go to the bottom of the container also......or fill from bottom up, not top down....

You could purge/flush the bottles with CO2, right before filling.

The (now) carbonated beer should be ice cold when filling the bottles. Dispense at less than 10 psi (6-8 psi works great for me).
Use a #2 rubber stopper over your bottling wand/tube to just create a seal on the bottle opening. Squeeze/tilt it to slowly release pressure as the bottle fills. It's even easier than it sounds.
