Hello, I have a keg from a brewery that i need to return. Can i bottle the remaining beer using carb tabs to preserve the carbonation? I will mostly be filing 22OZ bottle. Normally i would use two carb tabs when making fresh beer but when it's already carbonated i don't want exploding bottles. Do you think i should use two or one carb tab? PS: I will be using a home air pressured tap and the keg is being stored outside 40-55 degs. Should i cool the bottles before filling? thanks guys!
If you are dispensing with air the beer will be oxidized within a day and just about undrinkable. So don't waste your time. Cheers.
If the beer is already carbed, then there's no need to do anything except keep the bottles sealed. But, since what @billandsuz said is correct, I wouldn't bother.
