I posted this in Bottling/Kegging also:
I'm trying to force carbonate two kegs for this weekend and am not having too good of luck.
I have to carbonate them at room temp (68F) so I've had them at 40 PSI for two weeks. They stopped taking anymore gas a few days ago, so I thought they were done. Today, I put some ice in the jockey box and gave them both a pour. Both kegs were very lightly carbonated but not anything near the level that is desired.
Is there any way that I can get these to carbonate by this Saturday? I've started shaking the kegs to help in carbing them and they seem to be accepting more gas into the kegs.
Is there anything else I can do? If I HAVE to I'll go buy a Sanyo 4912 but that's really a last resort. Is it possible to carb these kegs in 5 days?
