Hi all,
I currently brew kit stuff, stout mainly, and I am considering moving to a keg set up. However when I taste at bottling all my beer is pretty much undrinkable, 2 months in the bottle and it's fine. How is this going to effect a keg set up?
Will I have to condition in the keg and naturally carbonate?
Should I rack into another container and leave it in that for my normal maturation time?
Am I just not understanding it?
Is my beer crap/ should it be perfectly drinkable out of the fermenter?
FYI This is my normal brew
Coopers Irish Stout
.5kg Dried light malt
1kg Dried Dark malt
.25kg Maltodextrine
Danstar Windsor yeast
Brewed at 20/22 ish
Normally 9 days in fermenter
Any help/advice appreciated.
Graham.
