How do you prime your cornies?

Hi all,

How do you guys carb your brews in your cornies, and does it taste as good if force carbed rather than carbing and conditioning with added fermentables?

Thats what i was thinking as there won't be "any" sediment (if pre cleared) so no risk.
Just didn't know if added fermentable conditioning made a difference but obviousely not!

Whats the minimum pressure ou can force carb at?
My boots barrel has a woking pressure rating of 15psi, it's a beast of a plastic keg :grin:
