Hey everyone,
I am kegging my brew for the first time. I just kegged a Pacific Coast IPA from Brewers Best. When I transfered the beer to the keg from the secondary (a 5 gallon glass carboy) I took a hydrometer reading (1.010) and then poured the sample into a glass. It didn't really have any hoppyness aroma to it like I would expect from the recipe. My question is: I have some chinook hops that I could use for another dry hopping (I did dry hop with 1 oz chinook in the secondary). Can I safely decompress the keg and add a muslin bag of 1 or 2 ounces chinook to the keg and re-charge it? Or should I just let it be. I just kegged it yesterday and it's in the process of carbonating.
Cheers.
