This is a question regarding the bottling stage for Mr. Beer kits.
The Mr. Beer kit comes with plastic 1 liter bottles and the directions say to add the beer individually into each bottle (along with the sugar) to allow for carbonation.
For multiple reasons, I severely dislike the plastic bottles and I am switching to glass with my own bottle capper. However, I do not have all the tools I need for my own bottling.
So, my question to the forum is this: can I empty the un-carbonated beer from the keg, clean the keg, put the beer back into the keg, add the requisite sugar, and allow the beer to carbonate in the Mr. Beer keg itself (instead of individual bottles)?
Has anyone tried this does the beer come out the same way?
Thanks in advance!
