Brewers can do a 2nd fermentation in the keg to obtain natural carbonation, just like bottled beer. The method is the same as for bottles:

• Preferably, dissolve the sugar in a small quantity of water or beer. This step is crucial as it ensures even distribution of sugar, promoting consistent carbonation. Pour it into the keg.
• Transfer the beer so that everything is mixed well.
• Place the keg upright for several days at ambient temperature so the second fermentation can occur. Then, put it in a cool place for clearing and maturing.
• A discarded but still working refrigerator is ideal; this allows you to pour your beer at the correct temperature. When the beer has completely cleared, drinking can start.
