If you put exactly 5 gallons of beer in a corny keg, is there any headspace or would that amount of beer fill it completely?
For whatever reason, I was thinking about this today and I'm not trying to split hairs but, how are you ensuring that you are in fact putting exactly 5 gallons into your keg? Do you weigh it as you are filling? Does different FG affect the weight thereby needing a way to ensure volume to the 5 gallon mark? Have you pre filled your kegs and checked to see how much water they will hold with & w/o head space? Also, what benefit, if any does head space give us? Canned beer has zero head space (assumption), bottled beer has head space...Why?
