Or really a question about stouts, as the question itself is not all that stout...
I am about 12 days into an AHS oatmeal stout and am about to do a IPA. I'm thinking about moving the stout to secondary (5 gal) so I can use the primary (6.5 gal) for the IPA. If I do this I was thinking of taking maybe a gallon of the stout to dry hop with some palisades just for fun. What do you guys think? Is this something you have tried before?
If it sounds a little more trouble than it's worth then I would just do the IPA in the 5 gal and use a blowoff tube to be safe.
TIA!
