I have a question.... I'm on the fence with dry hopping with fresh picked hops. I have to go one way today or tomorrow. I made a Harvest IPA with fresh Chinook and Cascade hops. It's time to dry hop and I'm worried about contaminating the beer with raw hops from the bine. I've heard the alcohol content will kill "things" and that as long as they are handled well there will be no problems. I've thought of misting the outside of the cones with Starsan.
Has anyone used fresh hops for a dry hop? Any comments or ideas?
