I've got a couple of bigger beers.. an attempt at a Double Bag clone and a barleywine that will be ready for conditioning soon and I'm considering crash cooling the secondary as I usually do. Then transferring to the cornie and force carbing. I'm thinking of storing the carbed brew at cellar temperature (about 62 - 64 F in the summer) and off the gas rather than in the kegerator. Maybe putting it on the gas every couple of weeks to keep the pressure up?
This doesn't seem to me to be a whole lot different than bottle conditioning, but maybe I'm missing something. Any pitfalls with this method?
TIA
