Hi
New here and have a coopers larger kit brewing and am going to try kegging it.
Do I have to rack it to another fermenter and prime it before I add to the corny or do I leave it in the 1st fermenter until it clears .all advice greatly appreciated!

Keg is just a big bottle, so just rack as you usually would. Only difference is to use half the priming sugar, as there is less headspace.

Thanks for reply.will there be a lot of sediment in bottom of keg that will transfer to glass?do I wait a few weeks before force carbonating with gas or will the priming sugar be enough?
Thanks again

If sentiment is a worry, just transfer from primary after about 3 weeks and force carb. Also if you crash chill after primary and fine with gelatin, you'll have very little crud transferred.

No worries. It's what were here for after all :)

That kit clears well on its own. If you can stick it in a fridge for a couple of weeks after fermentation has finished it should be pretty clear.
Open the tap into a glass and let the first half pint or so blast any sediment from the tap, then transfer the rest directly to the keg and force carbonate
I won't have room in the fridge but I will try fining it and see how I get on.this is only my second brew but I have invested in keg and accessories as bottling first brew was not the nicest job so next it will be a fridge specifically for it .thanks
