So, normally primary fermentation finishes pretty quickly. Then I will usually leave the beer in the primary for a total of about two weeks to clean up off flavors and all that jazz. I was wondering if once primary fermentation is complete, could you keg it at room temp with CO2 purge and still have the yeast in suspension clean things up. Or is it important for it to sit on the yeast cake? I guess it is kind of like using a secondary fermentation vessel, except it is a keg.
I am mainly trying to free up my fermenters for subsequent brews while not harming anything in the process. On the other hand, maybe I should just buy some more fermenters.
Thanks everyone.
