Yes, both for 5 days, pellets, in primary. Most will drop out by then, but on day 5 I stick it in a fridge to cold crash. It is always ready to keg the next day. Also, I've tried experimenting with the late hop addition, and these days I tend to not add all 3oz at flameout: I instead add...

I make a clone of this all the time (made the most recent version just yesterday), as it's a regular in my home kegerator and it always goes quickly. Mine comes out pretty spot-on, so feel free to copy it. I jokingly call my version "Cheeper." Here's what I do: Batch Size: 6 Gallons...

Can't argue with any of what's been suggested so far, but I figured that someone needed to mention Maine Beer Company. Great, great stuff all around. Also, I really like Smuttynose.

I had considered that, but how many PSI would I need to push that with? 3/16 ID vinyl tubing has a resistance of 3psi/ft. 50-feet of 5/16 OD tubing has about .5psi/ft, for 25psi. The faucet and shank add about 3psi more. So using 5' of 3/16 ID vinyl beer tubing, I'm looking at a staggering...
