Kegging Your Homebrew

It's a common opinion that upgrading to kegging from bottling your beer is the best investment you'll ever make for your home brewery. Here's a quick video on how to keg your homebrew from start to finish. I implement a cold crash (mostly) and a gelatin addition. Enjoy.

    "It's still gonna be beer and I'm still gonna drink it". Words of wisdom right there! LOL!

    You'll love kegging vs bottling for sure. One of the best upgrades as a homebrewer.

    Quick question, when you purge the O2 from the keg, how can you tell all the oxygen is out?

    For the next time, tip the fermenter a little bit forward so you got the segments lower in the front by the vale. Nice video.

    Good tip. I've done this with my massively hopped IPAs.

    Hello thanks for sharing.. Just a couple of questions.. What pressure is the gas at when purging , is it different to the pressure you use to pour ? And how long until the beer is right to drink?

    I usually sent my pressure to 20psi just because its faster and I also have a second regulator off my tank to do it without messing with serving pressure on my other kegs. Without force carbing, in about a week its carbed, however, I find aging about a month if possible allows adequate time for everything to come together in the beer.

    Excellent video!! Question: Should I add the corn sugar to my bucket or skip that as I am putting the beer in kegs and carbonation from CO2?? Thanks, JT

    no corn sugar at all, all done directly with the CO2

    @@BenStetson Thank you sir! First time kegging and was not sure if both would "over carbonate". Prob not but don't hurt to ask! Great T-shirt in the video as well!!!

    Do you use gelitan in all of your beers? Just curious. I hear of people using it for lagers but not much else. I am new to home-brewing and kegging so sorry if this is a dumb question lol.

    I use it for my IPA's and anything really not using flaked wheat or oatmeal those need to keep the protein haze. I don't use with lager as those clear really well even prior to kegging.

    Hej what is the thing with the gelatin? Tks

    It's a fining agent. Helps drop sediment and haze etc out of suspension. The result is commercial level clarity of the beer.
