    Dry hopping in keg

    Hey All, Just dry hopped for the first time in a keg. I pulled the bag yesterday and put the keg in the kegerator and hooked it up to co2 and the tap. I let it sit overnight and pulled a glass off of it today. There is A LOT of sediment floating around in there. I currently have the...

    finish gravity prob

    Just transferred from primary to secondary (keg). I didn't check the gravity (like a fool) until after I transferred. I'm at 20 gu's on one keg and 13 gu's on another. My target is 8 gu's!! It's a pale and supposed to be relatively hoppy, but all I can taste is the sweetness of the...

    Oxidizing beer

    Ok, just finished racking beer from my fermenter to my corny keg for the first time. I ran the beer through a strainer at the top of the keg and let it fill the keg up. There was lots of splashing/foam. I didn't realize my mistake until I was done filling the keg. Did I just ruin this batch...

    Fermentation question

    Hypothetical question here... I've calculated my grain bill using a 68% efficiency and a gravity reading of 60gu's. Let say that my efficiency ends up being 75% and my new gu reading is around 67. So in order to get down to 60 gu's I need to add about 1/2 gallon of water. I plan on using a...

    High OG

    Hey guys, first post here so take it easy on me! Just finished brewing my second batch of home brew last Saturday and post boil I had an OG reading of 67 gu's. I was shooting for 55 gu's. I figured that I would just roll with the higher gravity and have a stronger beer. Well I just took a...
