Hi All,
I am a new brewer and this is my first post. I have to admit that I am somewhat confused on how to approach forced carbonation as I have read very different ideas on how to do this. Many of the recipes I have read suggest kegging at 60F and storing at 52F for a Wit, but I have also seen other suggestions such as setting the PSI based upon vol of CO2 desired and the refrigerated temp. This seems to be the common recommendation in this forum, but I would like to get an understanding on what others think and if it makes much of a difference. I am using a corney keg with 24oz paintball CO2 bottle and regulator, and I am currently storing the keg in the fridge at 40F with PSI around 11.25.
I appreciate your thoughts and recommendations.
