I have read lots on kegging. I understand the basics of temp vs pressure vs line length, but see varied answers and lack practical experience.
I have 5 gallons in secondary right now that will be my first to keg. I have a keg pressure tested and cleaned. I want to force carb this beer. Oh, and it is going to an event in about 1 month, so I want to waste as little as possible dialing in settings.
My kegerator is not currently cooling all the way, so I will be force carbing at ~40F then dropping on ice the day of the event to cool a little further.
Since I have a month, I am thinking of setting pressure at 12PSI or so and also using that as serving pressure with a longer (10-12 foot) dispensing line. Oh, and it is a picnic tap for the event.
Any pointers to hep get this right and test with minimal waste are greatly appreciated!
