Hey guys,
I've recently got some corny kegs, and a converted fire extinguisher as a co2 tank. It's all finally working now when tested with water in the kegs.
So... Now I need to get some beer in there! I have a nice Citra / Columbus pale ale than will be ready to keg next week, but I just need to know what pressures to use to get it force carbed and then to dispense at.
The kegs I'm using are 9L versions. What pressure is good for force carbing? What should I then drop it to to dispense?
The idea is to keep the beer portable for parties and holidays, so I have a dispensing tap attached directly to the outlet disconnect, if that makes any difference to pressure settings.
Also, once it's carbed, and there's some pressure in the keg, how much beer will the stored pressure dispense? I'd Rather not take the co2 tank everywhere if I can avoid it.
Cheers,
Chris
