Hi all guys,
I have several times unsuccessfully tried to condition my beer in mini 5l kegs, but it never turned out to be carbonized beer. I have read that one should use about one third of the sugar dedicated for bottling. Whenever I used one third the beer was flat. Last time I used the same amount as would be used for bottling plus I added 10g more sugar. In summary it was a lot of sugar inside. We opened keg about one week after priming. The foam was going out of the faucet for about 15 minutes, and the beer was again flat.
Why?
