I just wanted to share a technique that I have used a couple times now with success. I LOVE dry hopping. I also like pinching pennies, and finding new ways to save money while producing delectable brews! Anyway, what I have been doing is dry hopping a beer and then pulling the "spent" hops out of the ready to drink brew, then adding these hops to my next brew for bitterness. I cant be 100 percent sure if I am getting as much bitterness as I would if I used fresh hops, but it sure tastes like it. Thought it was pretty cool and wanted to share it with y'all!
Hop to it!

Thoughts????
