First thread started here -
I'm dry-hopping my house IPA in the keg for the first time and decided to try 4-5 days at room temp (about 65 degF) then put in the kegerator. I'm just wondering if I should start carbonating at room temp as well? If I'm targeting 2.3 vols CO2 that would be starting the gas at about 22psi then dropping the pressure to 11-12 psi after placing in kegerator.
My guess is either way works, but just looking for some outside opinions here. So seal and start dry-hopping without CO2, or start both at same time?
If it matters I'm using 2oz Centennial/1oz Citra leaf hops in the stainless brewing cylinder.
Cheers!
