Guy at LHBS talked me into Columbus leaf hops. Put about 1.5oz in a muslin bag directly into the keg for 2 days. It tasted like completely over-hopped grass beer. I removed the hops and discarded, but now thinking this beer is ruined.
I have used this keg previously without issue. I replaced the o-ring today. Do holes in the dip tube magically appear?
:(
I just came in from the garage. I took out the dip tube. No holes anywhere. I removed the diptube o-ring and re-lubed it. I made sure the poppit was working and there was no...
Thx for the input. Though, I'm assuming you said the line switch backwards, right? If problem goes away, problem is the line. If it doesn't, it might be pick-up tube?
This is driving me insane. I have significant foaming issues on only one of my kegs (currently 3 others attached to same CO2 tank and manifold). I use the set-it-and-forget-it method at 11-12 psi, so I am not thinking it is close to being overcarbed.

Guys, I am stumped and need some help.
Little background: Have only brewed extract kits to-date. Recently built a keezer and started kegging 4 batches ago. Also have a separate freezer used as temp controller for fermenting. Have used the same buckets, carboys, kettle, and all other equipment...
I didn't add brown sugar to the boil when I just brewed the NB Nut Brown Ale, but now am thinking I would like to do something to it to give it more of a flare.
Should I add some brown sugar to the keg (secondary) and let it sit at room temp for another week or two prior to hooking it up to the...
