No experience with that yeast, but I vaguely remember reading or hearing about a way to scrub sulfur using co2. I'll see if I can find it.

A pound? Maybe 3?

Are you bottle conditioning or bottling from kegs?

That's probably about 6 hours away from here (VA Beach), so I'm not sure if it would be worth it for you. I guess if you got enough, but a couple bags with shipping might be a better option vs a 12 hr round trip.

Yes, I use it in a 5 gallon keg. I've had up to 4 oz in it for a 5 gallon keg, but it would hold more. The keg hop is my 2nd dry hop, so I do 3-4 oz in fermenter, then another 3-4 oz in keg. I transfer from fermenter, to keg with dry hops for about 4-5 days, then to a new purged serving keg. I...

I have been using pellets. I'm not sure what the mesh size is. It's a Chinese Amazon special

Reviving old thread. We now have a group buy set up. If anyone still follows this and is interested, contact me.

What does 1 psi sound like? And, how does the pressure of the purge co2 have anything to do with the foam? The co2 that is being sprayed into the bottle could be at any pressure, and doesn't necessarily equal whatever the keg pressure is set at. I used a separate (5 lb co2 tank) for the purge...

With enough beer line, anything is possible. I settled on 20 ft and was able to bottle at my serving pressure (without purging keg). But I just abandoned my beergun for a proper counter pressure filler. If you want to be extra safe, go with 25 ft.

Purging the keg CAUSES foam. 1 psi allows the dissolved co2 to rush out of the beer turning it into a foamy mess.

I just finished my counter pressure filler. I haven't posted it for comments yet, but it works really well. I also came up with a better attachment solution. I haven't seen anything like it yet.

I agree. I fill mine at between 10-15 psi depending on what I have the beer carbonated to.

This is what I put my dry (keg) hops in. After 4 or 5 days in a keg with hops in that, I transfer to a new keg off the hops.

OxiClean free (or generic substitute) and TSP90 at a 70/30 ratio is what I'm currently using.

Also, I started my last one with 6 gallons in the fermenter. Ended up with about 4.75 gallons after hop absorption loss.

So you are dry hopping once? (for a 5 gallon keg full) Maybe try your boil hops, a few oz at whirlpool, 3 or 4 oz dry hop in fermenter after a couple days, then transfer to keg on 2nd (3-4 oz) dry hop in stainless mesh hop tube. I don't brew more than one keg worth per batch of this type of...

Another picture of the injector.

Here's the gelatin injector I put together. Gotta be sure to release the pressure in keg before connecting the injector.
