Just kegged my first brew yesterday and it is sitting in my fridge at 39F with the CO2 set at 12 psi - this is where it will sit for about a week to carbonate (if I exercise restraint).
Question is; when do I raise it from carbonating to serving temperature? Should I wait for the full week then raise it up to serving temperature, or can I let it carbonate for, say, 48 hours at 39F (as I've seen suggested on a few sites) and then raise it to 50-ish for the remainder of the week, or...?
Also, should I store excess full kegs at 39-40F or closer to serving temps?
