I dry hop in the serving keg. I put them in a muslin bag designed for specialty grain steeping. Never had a problem but once. That time, the bag came open.

Here are my notes from experimenting with metabisulfites for chloramine removal. This was done on Houston Main System tap water which has fairly typical levels of chloramine. Sodium Metabisulfite 1 Campden tab = 686 mg 686 mg / 20 gal leaves a residual sulfite taste 3/4 of this still...

@sancycling << Will the sodium ones NOT eliminate chloramine? Or are there any other ill effects?>> IMHO...it doesn't really matter which one you use. It's the metabisulfite anion you are after. The tag along cation (K or Na) is just a residual addition. Since so little metabisulfite is...
