Over carbonated Sanke Keg
Posted: Tue Aug 05, 2014 6:00 pm
I have a Marzen beer in a 1/6th barrel sanke keg that is over carbonated. I used 5oz of corn sugar and allowed the keg to carbonate at approximately 65 degrees for about 3 months before moving the keg to the keezer. I bottled 4 samples when I transferred to the keg and they were all highly carbonated as well so I'm pretty confident that I have a high CO2 issue at this point. I just tapped the keg tonight and have found that it is highly carbonated as well and I need to degas, but there is very little that I've found out there about degassing a sanke keg. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Here is more information on my keezer settings: Temp 35F, 12 PSI, 6' of 1/4" tubing.
