Did anyone catch The Jamil Show with the Matt Brynildson, Union Jack brewer, interview? If I understood correctly, he likes to dry hop before fermentation is complete because the active yeast do good things with the hops.
I've been following the recommendation to primary for a month, and then bottling. For this time schedule, I've been dry hopping for the last week of the month, well after the yeast seem to have completed active fermentation.
If I follow Matt's recommendation, I should be dry hopping early, probably after three or four days. Is anyone here doing that? If so, how does beer dry hopped while the yeast are still a bit active (and kegged/bottled early) compare to beer dry hopped after fermentation is well over (and kegged/bottled much later)?
Thanks for any thoughts.
