I'm dry hopping a Belgian IPA with an ounce of pellets, so I've been looking all over at dry hopping techniques.
Here's my idea: In order to filter out any hops when kegging my beer, I'd like to simply fix a piece of muslin bag or paint strainer mesh taut over the inside opening of my spigot. I've seen this suggested once or twice and people have responded that it will oxidize the beer. I don't understand how that would even be possible as it wouldn't be exposed to any air. Thoughts?
