I have heard this many times : Don't fear the foam but I would still prefer my beer to be 100% beer if possibleOr...
Since most corny keg lids have a PRV built in:
I purge, turn ked upside down, let it sit for a bit, then pull the PRV for a second.
(You can always add more C02 if you want).
But as said above- a little star san aint bad at all. Consider it like a 1/4 cup of clean water in 5 gallons of beer. Don't fear the foam! Lol.
I get it! I think that's why i love beer- so many different ways to make it, drink it, etc.I have heard this many times : Don't fear the foam but I would still prefer my beer to be 100% beer if possible
After sanitizing the keg one could boil up 19 litres of water, put in the keg and then purge out with the Co2 - but pratically ?Why not boiled and cooled water instead of Star-San if you are concerned about possible larger amounts of Star-San remaining in the keg.
You already cleaned and sanitized the keg, hoses and couplings first didn't you?
I'll try 2 kegs side by side and seeIT used to worry me but now it doesn't. It really and truly doesn't hurt anything to have a tablespoon of star san SOLUTION still in the keg.
You can, of course, make your solution very weak and just leave it in there for a couple of weeks. Then that tablespoon of solution might have just a couple drops of star san in it.
I don't know how practical it is for your case, but water, gas and electricity are reasonably cheap here.After sanitizing the keg one could boil up 19 litres of water, put in the keg and then purge out with the Co2 - but pratically ?
