I just put my first keg of beer into my keezer. I've done about a dozen batches in bottles and this is my first keg. I used geletan for the first time and the result was very clear beer going into my keg. I used a modified forced carb method that should put me at full carb this weekend. After 30 mins of gentle rocking at my desired pressure I have what seems like reasonably carbed beer. It could use a bit more but it is good as is. And the beer tastes great! It is my almost IPA recipe... I call it A-HOPalipse Now. It's hoppy but ferments and cleans up fast so you can have it now!

Just feeling happy about it. I've been soooo itching to get into kegging. A lot of the advice I have read on this site has helped. Thanks!
 
Congrats! Now that I've also started kegging, I pretty much only bottle when I want to enter a comptetition or give beer as gifts.

My kegerator quickly grew from a single tap tower to a double... now I need to move into a house and build a bar.
