I just posted my introduction and following up with my first official post. I've always bottled and have decided to get a kegging system. But one thing I didn't consider until about 30 minutes into my first Keg Intended batch was conditioning. I was using the beersmith app and it recommended 30 days at 65F conditioning in the keg.
So.. I haven't installed my keg system yet, but this conditioning in the keg has me wondering.. do I pressurize, and then let the keg sit in a warmer environment. Do some people actually use corn sugar with a keg (I thought I would get away from this, but not opposed).. or do you just throw it under pressure, at lower temps and let it sit to carbonate and drink away?
I am a kegging newbie, so any ideas, recommendations or just how you do things would be helpful.
Thanks,
Ed
