Dry hopping at yeast pitch

[Antti]

Hi all !

I'm thinking about dry hopping at yeast pitch.

Fermenting in a plastic bucket, so this is probably the best way?

Do you have any personal experiences?

Any idea about hop variety and quantities?

a thread from last year :

i have seen plenty who do it. i have seen articles on it. i have seen reasons for and against.

i dont like the idea of those hops sitting in there the whole time. so i dont but its prolly not an issue.

also doesnt biotransformation change the hop characteristic from day 0 dry hopping. and something about hop creep being a potential issue .


OTOH i keg hop all the time and the hops sit in the keg for up to 6 -8 weeks . i havent had a beer go grassy in that time. but it prolly depends on the hops also.
