Hello-
I threw 3 kegs in Kezzer and pumped up the CO2 to about 20/22 lbs to carbonate it about a week ago.

How long would you keep it there at that pressure? 1 Week?

Also I just added my forth, and want to Keep the pressure high as well, but that wound mean keeping the other 3 that high as well. I could shut off the carb. line to the existing three- and keep the new keg at that pressure, right?

When they are all carbonated I usually bring it down to 10 lbs to get it out of the tap.

I guess my biggest concern is over carbonating the first three kegs.
Any thoughts?

I go 30 lbs for 36 hours; 48-ish for higher ABV beers. For some reason, they seem to take longer. I keep my keezer at 37 and do not have a circulation fan.

I would go no longer than 3 days at 20 lbs.
