Naturally Carbonating in Keg

[fantomlord]

What if I wanted to bottle 1/2 my batch? I think I like the idea of adding sugar, rack beer to keg, purge oxygen. Then with low pressure, fill a case of bottles to let carb there. Should I add sugar at regular bottling rates? Then when I'm ready to drink the keg, just check the pressure and see if I need to lower it to appropriate levels?

Interesting ideas learned on this board every day. Thx all.

1. keg
2. force carb
3. bottle with BMBF

I did that with a saison recently and after a month tried a bottle. It still had carbonation but not enough for a saison. Still may be the best method but I was looking for alternatives.

Sorry, I guess I wasn't clear. The saison was perfect in the keg but the few bottles I filled came out a bit flat.
