Bjorn Borg said:Another thing i regretfully did was bottle a beer and leave ZERO headspace as per Dave Miller's suggestion. The thing was that it took about 3 months to fully carbonate! I actually drank them all flat, but my friend kept one for at least 3 months and THAT one was perfect) This is a good idea to do with a beer you plan on 'aging' like a big belgian or russian stout. In theory no head space=no air for oxidation/staling, it works but you must be VERY patient...
