OK, here's the deal - I've gone thru primary and secondary fermentations. I've picked up a 19 litre stainless steel beverage container, a regulator, 20lb CO2 tank (I know - overkill), I have my input and output hoses.
I've purged the air out of the top of the canister. Now, I've put in 14-16 psi of CO2 at 44F., rocked the canister gently, and the CO2 has stopped making noise. The canister is in the fridge in the basement.
Now - is there an optimum dispensing pressure? - When infusing the beer with CO2, should I be using a higher pressure or is the 14-16 lbs alright?
And finally, and most importantly, how long before I can begin to swill the devil's brew???
