Hi everyone, I've just kegged my latest brew. It's a pilsner and I want it to have around 2.4 volumes of co2. I've put this into one of them online calcutalors and it has given me 16psi if it's at 10C. 10C is the ambient temperature of my shed. I am leaving it to carb and condition until Xmas, but when I come to drinking it I will store it at around 5/6C. Now my question is, do I just reduce the pressure when I put it in the fridge? Or do I keep it at a lower pressure now and then the carbonation will be right when I chill it?
Second question do I need to leave the gas connected..? Or can I just reconnect the line a couple of times a day until it stops dropping in pressure?
Third question I've read that people drop the pressure to 2 psi for serving. Is this correct? Won't that effect the level of carbonation in the beer?
Thanks in advance
Jake
