I brewed an Imperial Stout and tried to do the primary in corny keg...I have done this before with no problems. I connect a blow-off hose to the gas in post and run it into a bucket of water. this time however I noticed very little bubbling from what was a very high grain load. When I pulled the relief valve to check the pressure the noise was deafening. It turns out that the Poppet may have been sticking and not relieving enough pressure. I quickly decided to transfer to another keg before disaster struck. When I transferred it the amount of foam that cam out of the gas in line of the receiver keg was ridiculous. Now a week later and I am barely building any pressure in the keg. I think I may have lost my yeast, so my question is, can I throw some yeast in a new keg, and transfer the beer again to see if fermentation will start again?
If so should I make a starter, or can I just put dry yeast in the keg before I transfer?
Thanks.
