I have everything needed to keg my first lager except experience. I have been bottling beer and wine for years and have had "enough" of beer bottle washing. I just purchased a fridge that can store 2 cornys with the tank of co2. Do I cool the keg after racking before hitting it with co2 or charge it immediately after I rack and then start the cooling process. Do I need to purge the tank and how do I do it?I understand the temp/pressure/volume as described by the posted charts. I just want to correctly get it in the fridge. I work away and the beer has been sitting for 4 weeks now in the carboy and I'll soon be home to get it in the keg, then set up another batch. Also, does it hurt to have the co2 tank stored cool with the keg. Thanks a bunch of beer.
