I've heard you should bulk age first then dry hop right before you package.

Any updates?

Sorry for piggy backin....but What if I've alrwady dry hopped for 7 days and I'm not ready to package. Could I add another round of dry hops and package when that 7 days is up?

You won't have to add yeast. There is still plenty of yeast left in suspension to eat those sugars up. But it will not greatly affect your abv. What were your og and fg?

Just got done putting this beer un primary, and just ordered my kegging system. This will be one of my first on draft.

Don't think it would survive at that abv.

Do you take into account the water it takes to boil the sugar?

Thanks!

Some gourmet grocery stores have hazelnut flavoring in the coffee isle. It might work but I think it has sugar in it

Made an all belma ipa it is just ok but not the style that it is suited for. May try what I have left in a saison.

But not all the time. One hooked up to the system and the other seperately plugged in just to bring to a boil.

What if I use the setup as is but put an additional heat stick in to bring to a boil after recirculation? Will one stick get 8 gallons of water to 170 degrees?

I'm sorry if this has been asked but I couldnt read through the whole thread, if I wanted to bring this up to 5 gallon batches and use a 4500 watt 240 volt would the parts for the controller box be the same except I would need a 240 volt plug? I cant believe I may tackle this, i have never...
