Great, Thank you. :mug: Just got a kegerator, about to get my 2nd corny and will have some beer to put in it before the other is tapped. Seems like a 2-way manifold is the way to go. http://stores.kegconnection.com/Detail.bok?no=51

Bumping this thread to ask a question here... Why wouldn't you be able to force carbonate using the gas manifold? Unless I'm just misunderstanding "force" here... If you wanted to carbonate 2 using a manifold...2 ales, say, could you not have one hooked up to serve at 10-12 PSI while the...

I'm sure someone could answer this better than I, but my (limited) understanding is that it just means allowing the beer to sit for a few days at near freezing (35-40 F) after fermentation ends. If done while dry hopping, some say it preserves the aroma better. Again, anybody feel free to...

Wanted to check in with my results. I ended up just dropping the pellets into secondary and racking on top. I left them in there for 3 days at room temp (about 74 degrees); I had planned on 5 but upon reading that there is supposed to be ZERO head space in secondary (hey, I'm a newb) on Day 3...

Alright, so the plan of attack will be: * Add hops (in boiled pantyhose with a marble to sink) on Day 16 * Move fermenter with hops to refrigerator at ~40F on Day 20 * Rack to bottling bucket on day 23 * Bottle condition at room temp for ~2 weeks Objections? :drunk:

What temperature is needed for "cold crashing?" I have an empty fridge right down in the basement next to where the beer is fermenting. It sounds like I might be well served to move the fermenter to the fridge for a couple days after dry hopping for 3-5?

I guess I should also say that I bottle as opposed to keg. I just noticed when I posted my reply that this thread is in the "All Grain and Partial Mash" section; I am using an extract batch, so I apologize if I posted to the wrong forum section.

Greetings all - first time poster here. I found this thread by searching for dry hopping and have read all the posts. Lots of interesting ideas, but I think Phillip's post above about the pantyhose may be the one I go with. This is my 2nd batch, first time dry hopping. A DFH 60 minute...
