Are all of the Hopped on the high seas done like that?

I'm so jealous of your access to these brews. The one dry hopped with Citra was soooo damn good
If he left the wort on the grain, I'd agree. But if he collects it in the kettle & sparges then I don't think the wort would sour in the kettle.
Yep... Hence the name. The real story is that they contracted with a brewery in Puerto Rico because of space issues in Tampa. They then decided to dry hop the beers along the way in their refrigerated tanks. Pretty awesome if you ask me!
You beat me to it. I think it's pretty awesome as well, but I'm a homer
Fin, I got your box but I haven't even had a moment to open it! I will though.
Drinking water, about to go grab a beer. Had a Miller's Toll and Hell Yes Ma'am earlier while getting gas.
I just read myself into confusion. I racked my beer into a keg, added about 20 PSI, released it, did that three more times. Then turned the regulator up to 30 PSI and put the keg in the fridge while the CO2 tank, regulator, and manifold are all on. By tomorrow I should have carbonated beer, right? I know I have to relieve the pressure then turn it back up to 10-12 PSI. But I keep seeing how I should be connected to the liquid connect and not the gas for this?
The keg was room temp, the beer was room temp, everything is in the fridge now. Or tell me to start a newbie thread and I'll do that.
I don't think it matters if it's left on the grain or not. After all, when sparging you're rinsing everything that's on the grain off and into the kettle. I think what matters is the temperature. If it's not hot enough to kill the unwanted organisms on the grain, then they will be doing some work during that 24 hour period he's waiting before boiling. I would think that's long enough to get noticeable lactic sourness. But I'm no expert.
You want the beer cold for the co2 to dissolve into it. I normally sit at 30psi for 48hrs after it's down to fridge temps and then drop down to 10psi, but ymmv. Doesn't have to be connected to the liquid line, but that can speed the process up a little.
Drinking Mtn Dew while prepping to roast my first batch of home roasted coffee and then I'm gonna throw together some hand picked/squeezed lemon skeeter pee
I was thinking a mash out of 170 would pretty much denature the enzymes and stop any further work.
Purge with co2 then fill. Then put in kegerator overnight to chill the beer. The colder it is the better it will absorb the co2. Then add gas and ramp up to 30 for a couple days. You should be good. You'll most likely have to wait a bit longer for it to carb not chilling first but all is good. Trial and error!Fin, I got your box but I haven't even had a moment to open it! I will though.

Okay. It's at 25 now in the fridge. I'll bump it when it's cold.
Thanks for putting up with my off topic crap. I'm naturally annoying.
Drinking a shake chocolate porter on nitro.
WtF? I was drinking beer not food!
Can I pull a pint tomorrow night just to "test" it?

You can start pulling them now if you want, wont be as good and might slow the process down but it;s not like when you started brewing and you wanted to look, touch, taste it, you're not going to hurt it now.
