So i have an odd setup. I have four 3 gallon kegs, and a mini-fridge that, currently, can only hold one keg and my tank. So...
This is my first experience with kegging, and i want to get my beer as clear as i can, and i need to dry hop this IPA (5 gallon batch) with 1 ounce of Citra.
What i was considering was:
Transfer 2.5 gallons to each keg. Let one keg sit, while i "cold crash" one in the mini-fridge. After a couple of days, i could maybe transfer the crashed keg to a clean keg, and dry hop at room temp for 5-7 days. Then, add gelatin and put in my mini-fridge for serving.
Repeat process for the other keg.
My mini-fridge won't hold my primary fermentor, and i would like to cold crash in kegs so i can avoid all of the "fermentor suck" issues.
So i was wondering if anybody had ideas on a better process, from their experience.
Summary: 3 gallon kegs, small minifridge(holds one keg), need to clarify and dry hop.
Thanks for your input!
