I am pretty new to this kegging, but I have a few questions that I have been wondering about.
I have 5 gallon kegs and want to naturally carbonate my beer in the kegs, but on the same note I would like to have a 12 pack or so of the beer that I just made for later dates.
My thoughts are, and correct me if I am wrong, I am going to use a beer gun to fill the bottles and then since the beer is already cold I would like to set the 12 pack aside in my basement. I am just not sure if the beer will last for up to a year let alone be ok when transitioning from the cold keg and back to a 60-70 degree environment?
I am naturally carbonating due to lack of CO2 hook ups and to have a large variety of beers for my parties.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
