Sorry, I am new to kegging. Is it possible to depressurize my corny keg while its full so that I can open it and add bourbon soaked oak chips?
Of course. Turn the gas off (or pull the gas line off the barb) and pull the pressure release valve at the top of the keg.
However, the idea of adding wood chips to a serving keg is another story...
Thank you everyone. The beer didn't turn out how I liked so I thought I would try adding some bourbon to it. I read soaking the wood chips in 16 oz of bourbon for 48 hours. Does that seem like enough?
Its a maple bacon brown. I won't put in the wood chips. Is it worth soaking the bourbon for a day or just adding the bourbon?
I'd soak toasted oak chips in the bourbon for a day or two to make a concentrated flavor, then pour in a little of the bourbon at a time to see if the beer gets better or worse.
Experimentation will lead to failures, but the successes are worth the risk and make you famous.
