Hello all,
I'm having a problem with my current brew - I added about 4oz of hop pellets to the secondary and everything appeared to be fine with the kegging process. But I either got too greedy when siphoning from secondary to keg or everything hadn't settled out or something else but I cannot pour anything out of the keg. The dip tube keeps getting jammed with hops and other material. I have tried everything it seems from trying to siphon out the bottom of the keg to making a little screen to put on the end of the dip tube but that gives me such a frustratingly slow pour. The beer is already carbed so I dont think I'd be able to transfer to the carboy and back to the keg without losing a ton of beer - any other suggestions? is it worth it to cut the dip tube? Thanks in advance
