Folks, there's a concept I just don't understand. Why, after a beer is carbonated, does the keg maintain positive pressure even if you take the keg off the gas, but if the beer is not carbonated and you remove from the gas with, say 20 psi, the beer will absorb all CO2 in the head space and reach equilibrium (rather than keep positive pressure)?
I ask this because there are uncarbonated beers that I'd like to store in kegs and have confidence that no oxygen is getting in there. Everytime I've done this, though, I've come back to the keg only to find that there is no positive pressure. Can anyone help me with this?
