OK, so I have never dry hopped in a keg before. Is it normal to be cloudy the whole time? This beer was clearing nicely before i added the hops. I put .5 oz in a tea ball.
I don't usually get it, but I know hops haze is common in dryhopped beers.

I won't answer for Yooper but since I made this my House ale I'll tell you what I did.
I swapped out the 60 minute 1 oz Cascade addition with .75 oz of a more aggressive bittering hop like Columbus or some Hercules if you can find it. (17.7%)
I love this beer. Every time.
I've been making it exactly the same way each time! I haven't changed it a bit. I really like it the way it is.
So 100% cascades still? I like the cascades but have some amarillo on hand as well
I need to move north. Last year was the second year for my cascade bines. What the heat didn't get, the grasshoppers did
I don't have any Vienna malt, you think i could sub the vienna for more pale malt?
I made a 10 gal version of this yesterday. I didn't have Vienna so I adjusted the Munich and Pale Malt a bit, a little different beer but I'm sure it'll be good. My electric RIMS held 154F perfectly and got 1.060 wort. Its fermenting away as we speak!
nyer - I typically go 7-10 days dry hopping this recipe. I've done it 3 times (4th in primary right now) and have loved every one. Cheers!
Are others getting a FG of 1.010? I'm at 1.016 and I think thats about right for S-05.
I brewed up a batch of this about 4 weeks ago and kegged it last night. It'll be a little mucky at the start (pulled a lot of dry hop particles through the siphon and into the keg), but the sample I got out of the siphon line at the end of the process tasted pretty damn good.
Thanks, Yoop.
