Nolfok nog and corny

Post by Thurlby » Thu Oct 25, 2012 8:38 am

Got a batch of nog in pressure barrell all primed and ready to go but I have just invested in a corny keg set up can I transfer it to corny keg and carbonate it with co2 even though its already been primed with sugar in the pressure barrell or will it affect the brew or should I just leave and enjoy my brew out of the barrell :D

Not sure about the equipment side of things, but I think that moving your beer now will expose it to air, potentially leading to oxidisation and infection.

Enjoy it from the barrel. Make more beer soon to fill up your corny.

I would, however, suggest that you try filling up your corny with water, just to check that it all works and is ready to handle your beer.

You don't want to wait until the day you're transferring to find out the seal on your corny has a leak!
