    Thanks sweetcell, that's sounding right to me. My feeling is that this activity is dropping so
    quickly that something is wrong. I saw so man people saying they disregarded the rehydrating
    step that I ...

  • Posted in thread: keg hop or dry hop? on 05-23-2013 at 09:35 PM
    I've moved to all-keg dry-hopping (in a bag of course). If you are worried about clarity (I'm
    not), you can fine with gelatin after a few days. I add the hops in while racking to keg, then

    Note how much...

    I don't see valves. How are you transferring liquid on brew-day? Also, looks like you're

    but my sorrow f...
