Are you putting it into a budget keg or corny?

If budget keg, add 85gs of sugar (if you have brewed it to 23l), leave in the warm for two weeks and then a cool place for a week. It will carbonate up nicely. Opinions are divided on this kit. Some love it and some, like me think it lacks a bit. It needs a good maturing time, but if taste it after a few weeks and its clear and you like it, tuck in! :D

Cheers
