So I have been bottling my brews for awhile and I have found that my beer will be fully carbonated in about 3 weeks. However, they always taste "green" to me. If I wait a few more weeks they taste spot on!
So, I am moving to kegging. My question is... If I keg a beer and carbonate it within a few days will it be really green tasting still or not? I have seen force carbing where you can drink your beer within a few hours, but i don't think I would enjoy it if it didn't taste optimal. I know that quickly carbing your beer with kegging is a plus. What does the majority do, and how does it taste?
I figure if I want to have my optimal beer taste I would slowly carb in the keg then let it sit for a few weeks prior to drinking. So, am I missing something. Is kegging and quickly carbing my beer with kegs and C02 make everything quicker and better? Is that why people rave about kegging?
Thanks for your input everyone!
