So I just got my DFH Indian Brown Ale kegged and carbed but I think I'm going to want to dry hop it.
I've never dry hopped in the keg before so I need some suggestions.
So can I dry hop with pellets or should I stick with whole leaf? I'll be using a bag.
If I can use pellet, let me know what you think would be best to use. Here's what I have on hand (all pellet). If one of these doesn't work, what would be a good addition?
Cascade
Columbus
Chinook
N. Brewer
Hersbrucker
Kent Goldings
DFH IBA RECIPE:
10oz British amber malt
10oz Crystal 60L
8oz Chocolate light malt
2oz roasted barley
12 Lbs 2-row
Single Infusion - 150* 60 min.
1/2oz Warrior Hops for 60 Minutes
8oz Dark Brown sugar at 10 minutes
1oz Vanguard Hops at Flameout
Wyeast 1187
Finished up at 1.017 - forgot to take hydro reading until it was in the keg so it's a tad sweeter than I wanted but what are you going to do eh?
