I typically schedule my brews so that I recycle the yeast cake with a similar or darker beer for at least 2-3 batches. I start with a dry yeast packet.
So I prefer to keep as much of the hops out of that cake by using muslin hop bags.
?????
How do I insert the hop pellets into a carboy for 5 days and then remove them? I might could stuff them in the neck, but I will not be able to get them out via a muslin bag.
The only solution I can think of is to just toss them in the carboy 5 days before bottling, but most of the hops will remain in the cake, foiling my plans and tainting the next batch.
