I didn't see any allusions to this in searching the forum, but it has now happened three straight times... Adding dry hops to three different batches of ale in the secondary coincided with the very rapid (24-36 hours) clarification of the beer. In each case the beer had been upwards of two weeks in the secondary and appeared to have done all of the clarifying it was going to do. The first time, I added loose plugs before I went to bed, and the batch was crystal clear above a definite horizontal striation in the middle of the carboy when I woke up, and perfectly clear down to the yeast cake that evening. The second time I added plugs in a nylon bag without enough marbles to make it sink. The hops (in the bag) floated on top and the beer clarified in much the same fashion. I'm now watching the same thing unfold a third time...this with plugs in a nylon bag with enough marbles to make it sink...there is clearly less visible suspended particulate matter in the area right around the bag, and the beer has begun the same sort of rapid top down clarification after maintaining basically the same level of gentle haze for the 15 days in secondary prior to dry hopping. I presume this is common and expected, but all of the posts re: dry hopping are techniques and straining/filtering/racking suggestions and I didn't see any reference to the phenomenon... Is this typical? What's the science?
