I am getting ready to brew a batch for the first time to go to keg instead of bottling.
I am picking up the empty keg this weekend.
wanted to ask about carbonation.
I have been using carb drops to bottle. I assume for kegs you just add corn sugar into the fermented wort when you fill the keg?
or is the CO2 all the carbonation needed? I see Brewers online filling the keg with a hose from carboy but can’t I just open the top and fill it with the wort and corn sugar (for carbonation) then let it sit two weeks as I do with bottles?
