Ok so today is my first time kegging, I started off with an OG of 1.051 and ended up at 1.01 so from what BrewCalcs says my Blonde should be around 5.5% ABV. Since its a Blonde I set it at 11 psi and im cooling it down to 40-42 degrees, in about a week it should carbonated and ready to serve.
You can also speed up the process by 'force cabonating' if you want. Based on the temperature of the beer before refridgeration, attach c02 and agitate keg until you no longer hear the gas leaving the tank. Then, refridgerate and over night the beer will be carbonated properly.
