Gotcha. Would pressurizing the conical during cold crash with CO2 work? Set the regulator to 1 psi and let it ride?
To clarify I milled everything that wasn’t already flaked.
With regards to the OG difference from recipie, agreed, not ideal. Best we can tell we are having efficiency issues...
Admittedly things didn’t go as planned the most recent time around. Couldn’t get the pressurized transfer to work (not sure why yet, has worked fine before). Solution was to transfer from the conical and, while the keg was filling, pushing CO2 from the top into the keg while filling...
SS brew tech conical fermenter with internal coils built in. AC unit used to pump gel through coils to crash.
I actually thought about O2 draw but the fermenter is well sealed and we had our blow off well dropped into the star San bucket. I have a picture in a previous reply in this thread of...

Thank you! Long time lerker, first time poster. Color remained the same from conical to pour post-carb. I have a picture posted above of a comparison to commercial NEIPA.
Well here’s hoping the streak ends soon!
Brewers, I come to you in an hour of need. I’ll start by stressing one point: I don’t know how oxidation could be an issue. All fermenters/cold crashing/kegging was conducted with every manner of seal/pressurized transfer/ etc.
TLDR: Perfect out of the fermenter. Terrible after kegging.
