Is there any reason I can't dry hop in the keg I'm dispensing from? Rather than racking my fermented beer from my primary to a secondary fermenter and dry hopping in the secondary before transferring to a dispensing keg, why can't I just rack the beer straight to my dispensing keg and place the dry hops in a sterilized hop bag suspended from the top of the keg by a sterilized non-flavored piece of unwaxed dental floss? It would seem to me that I could accomplish multiple objectives by doing this: I would only need to rack the beer once and while it was clarifying and carbonating it would also be dry hopping at the same time (added benefit also being that the beer would be ready for drinking sooner). Am I missing something? Is there some reason why I shouldn't be doing this?
