Wondered how your 13lb of malt was going to fill a firkin (9 imp gal cask) of beer with IPA I forget the size of those soda kegs, but you must be running at a low efficiency. I used about 8lb or 9lb of English Maris Otter(best extraction and full flavour 2-row malt barley) for 5 imp gal of IPA strength beers. You may need to play around with your mash liquor, adding a little temporary hardness to get a better extraction rate with poor maltings.

@dirkchiverism I dunno. A local brewery is using my beer engine now. I brew on their pilot system periodically. Should be doing something soon with them, which will be cask.

Do you seal the keg with c02 after priming then vent it off once the O ring is set tight and no leaks? primed my brown ale today I purged the air and tried to seal the keg with 7psi of co2 and over about 3 hours it was down to 2 psi, Im just after putting it up to 30 psi now and I think it sealed it made a little kinda pop sound, will the yeast still condition the beer with that much pressure on it? its at room temp also. cheers.

@videoMC2010 Yes, I hit it with about 30 PSI a few times to purge the air.
You can see the lid pop up and seal the keg.
