Im interested in figuring out the best method for beer storage, transfer, dry hopping and clarifying in order to reduce exposure to oxygen, properly dry hop beer in a keg, and get my beer clear.
Im not looking for feedback on timing or carbonating methods.
2.5 gallon batch fermenting in a 5 gallon carboy for primary. After attenuation has been met, cold crash for 48 hours to get as much yeast as possible out of suspension. Transfer to keg (and save yeast for next batch). Dry hop in the keg with a fine mesh keg hopper (pellets or leaf) at room temperature (keg on 20-30psi). After dry hop period, cold crash for another 48 hours to further clarify and drop any hop particulate out of suspension. Remove mesh keg hopper. Carbonate to appropriate volume. Wait appropriate time for flavors to mature. Serve.
Thank you in advance for any thoughts/suggestions/opinions.
