Ok...I kegged for the first time. I've been brewing for a year and a half. Don't have my keezer up and running yet so I will be chilling the keg on ice prior to the party.
I primed the keg with 1/3 cup of sugar, it'll hit the 2 week mark just before the party.
I was told to purge the Co2 from the tank, then hook up the gas and set to the serving pressure. I thought I'd go around 8 psi as this is a British Bitter.
My question is once I start to chill it, how soon do I purge and put it on gas, will the 8 psi be high enough? It will be outside next to the bar being served through a cobra tap and 5ft of line.
Thanks and Cheers
