Hi all well seasoned brewers
Sorry if this has been dealt with before >but can someone please give me a bit of info on carbonating my new keg (new for me ) .
I want to find out what to set the pressure at in the keg, how long to leave the co2 bottle tap open as i can hear a small amount off gas coming from the regulator pressure release hole and don't want to wast to much co2 . At the moment I have the keg under 3 bar off pressure and did vent out all the air (as well as i could ) before transfering my beer to my keg from the fermentor . also want to know if i should shake the keg around to force carbonation or just let it stand under pressure? And lastly must i leave the keg outside after kegging for a few days to mature or can i refrigerate immediately after carbonation . I have a SABS 30L keg with G-coupler
