They were fermented 2 weeks on sunday so i transfered from primary to corny keg and they have been without gas pressure since sunday. Im hoping this will not be a major problem
That’s not a problem at all it’s the same thing as letting it sit in the fermenter. One thing I’ve learned is that a lot of the worry isn’t needed. The only bad brew I ever had was my very first time when temp control got way to high. With time you figure out what works for you and the stress goes away.
 
Guys i cant state how amazing this website is and all your replies im advancing quickly at this with all your help. I have my kegs sitting in the shed all week and its peak winter in ireland so very cold! Ive noticed every day my regulator has been going from 10psi to 20psi so im turning it back down to ten everyday. I just purchased a decent sized chest freezer so im planning on turning it into a kegerator with the addition of a third corny keg and i could possibly fit my gas in. Ill upload photos of my freezer and planned progress ( screenshots from a youtube vid) and any advice more then welcome!

There’s lots of keezer threads on here if you search. I got a 7.5 cubit feet chest freezer it fits 6 kegs and 5 pound co2 perfectly but now I wish I went bigger but really we just don’t drink at home a lot lol. It’s actually really easy to build the only thing I need help with is my husband drilled the holes in the collar for the taps.

I hook my finished beer up to the CO2 and blast it at 30psi while rolling it on it’s side for a full 5 minutes. Then I put it in my chest freezer for 3 hours and it’s got good carbonation and is ready to go every time. This is the burst carbonation method.
Very nice im thinking 3 kegs but maybe i should fit 4 if i can going from your experience! Really like your set up
