Here I am under the gun to have a keg on tap Saturday at noon and it is Thursday at 4pm. Beer is fully fermented, but yeast hasn't quite settled. Here is the plan, but this is a first for me, so looking for suggestions if this doesn't sound right.
Beer is now in corny, purged head space with CO2. Going to cold crash until tomorrow evening (~24 hours) to get yeast to settle out. Then planning a pressure transfer to a new corny. Going to force carb via stone (with 1/4" ID hose to bottom of keg) set at 12psi/40 deg F (targeting about 2.5 vol). Keg should get about 18 hours under pressure with stone before serving. Never used carb stone, but I hear this is plenty of time.
Thoughts?
All advice is welcome, other than the obvious..... yes I should have started this brew sooner
