We've done 3 or 4 brews in kegs now, with different levels of gas, from 30psi for a week to 10psi for a week.
I wanted to know what others done, as we're struggling to get the beer calmly into the bottles.
I purge any gas in the keg 12 hours before the bottling, then the beer is taken from the keg in the fridge into cool (not fridge temp) bottles, under little pressure (5psi). Some go nuts and froth over, some are ok.
One of our kegs seems to have a small leak, which yields great results, as the beer keeps good gas, and isn't to crazy come bottling time. But we cannot regulate it!
