G'day, I'm looking at buying a kegging system, I'm not new to homebrew but new to kegging.
Something I can't get my head around is to do with aging brews after kegging, from what I've read you simply empty the uncarbonated beer into the keg, hook up the CO2, and about three days later, you're drinking.
But this goes against what I've heard many times; "it gets better with age"... Is it simply a trade-off that you are drinking lesser quality beer when using a keggign system? Or do people simply leave the beer in the keg in the fridge for months before consuming? This sounds annoying as a 2-key set-up seems the norm so there would be a lot of "down time".
Anyway, hope my question made sense, thanks for replies.
