I have read numerous threads on how to force carb. I could use a little help after I ramble for a quick few.
What I have done is followed the set and forget method. I placed 2 kegs in a small fridge set at 44 degrees and set it accordingly, I believe around 16 psi. Let it sit for well over a week. Purged the pressure out, hooked up a 10 ft hose and poured or foamy then flat beer.
Also have 4 other kegs in a fermentation chamber around 64-65 degrees set at 26-27 psi. Some have been in there for over 2 weeks.
Realize I may have problems when moving these kegs to the kegerator.. but after I purge shouldn't they serve at 65 and be carbonated??
I am not leaking CO2 anywhere as both bottles are not showing any signs of serous loss.
Last year I would place in fridge at unknown temp and crank the pressure past 30 for a couple days which seemed to leave all my beers over carbonated and nothing but problems with serving.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should do. Why these beers are not carbing?
THANKS!
