I am going to be "dry beaning" for the first time. I do not want to cold press, since I have already used this in the past. My beer is a massive Russian Imperial Stout at 15%. It has been fermenting for 1 week, and so I was going to add the coffee to the primary for 24 hours, then rack to my secondary, where it will be aged on bourbon soaked oak and some vanilla beans.
My question is, what is the best sanitizing practice for "dry beaning". Should I grind it up, and add the grounds to a straining bag? Add coffee beans to the straining bag? How would I sanitize everything? Soak the straining bag in starsan then just add the beans/grounds to it? Should I soak everything in bourbon? There doesn't seem to be much info regarding this. Keep in mind, I would prefer to try something new, and not do Cold Press. Thanks!!
