I was going to dry-hop with another oz of amarillo, but saw all the hop discharge in the blowoff tube and thought it was a lost cause. :o
I've never seen anything like that before!
Thank you for your reply.
Whoa. I've never seen all that (any?) hop material before, or sediment on the side of the carboy--but this batch didn't use any irish moss or gelatin--could this be what caused it?
I skimmed the thread and couldn't see anything super flaky like this. It was an absurdly hoppy (ie expensive) American IPA. We were experimenting with late extract addition and didn't notice until afterward that one of our DME bags was torn open--probably the source of the infection. Anybody...
