Hi, I’m a year into homebrewing and, thanks to the advice from this forum, my beers are improving, really appreciate all the knowledge that’s been passed on.
I have an issue with bottling my carbonated beers and wondered in anyone could help? The beer is carbonated in a corny keg and is transferred to bottles via ball locks and a Blichmann beer gun. The tubing is 3/16’’ to reduce bubbles. Before bottling I reduce the pressure in the keg to about 2psi using the venting valve as I’m worried that beer at higher pressure will just ‘jet’ out. In reducing the pressure am I removing the CO2 from the beer? and is there any way around this. My beers seem quite flat despite having a weak carbonating at the pressures recommended on Brewfather.
Thanks
