Can I store my beer in a corny keg

[MichaelRyanSD]

Rather then bottling my entire batch of beer, can I just put it all in a corny keg and go from there?

Of course. You can even carbonate in the keg, and then bottle it from there.

I currently have 5 gallons of Oktoberfest lagering in a corny keg over the summer.

So long as you purge the head-space with CO2 (or prime it and let it produce CO2..)

Add a CO2 tank, refridgerator (or chest freezer with temp controller), a few fittings, hoses, picnic taps or proper taps, and you'll never bottle again!

Plenty of threads on here regarding kegging... and cornies are the homebrewer's preferred keg. Just hit the 'search' button up there...

Ok cool, thats what I thought, but you know, the first time doing everything you want to get the "okay" from the experts....

I would think a corny keg would be the BEST way to store beer. No chance of light getting in and you can purge the O2 out and not have to worry about oxidation.
