I think ive pulled about 4 or 5 full pints out of it I guess I will never know if it was time/gunk or both lol as long as I enjoy it im good... I will try not to touch it for another week seems to get better... 11 days kegged now

9 daya kegged tastes decent.. not like sucks yet but good... im guessing after a mo th it will mellow a bit

Oooo sounds great but harder than this last one

That a pliny clone? The dry hopping notes confuse me on that one

I love me hoppy beers... you have a hop stoopid extract clone and it comes out close I would just brew that...that is one of my favs. That and blind pig

Just racked to keg. Boozy flavor mellowed a bit and smells and taste hoppy.... so far so good in jeggerator at 34-36 degrees at 13 psi. Ran all beer lines through copper tube up into the tower with. T runing another tube to the cooling elements in the back. Also a pc fan to push cold air up that...

I will try mesh bag at end of my racking cane when I transfer from secondary to keg on friday.

I just figured the yeast would quit after reaching FG i guess i could of been on top of it and cold crashed when it reached your fg you posted? Should I add an inline filter on my beer line?

I will be kegging friday. Racking cane to keg and letting carb at 12 psi at 34 deg. In your experience with the clone could you tell the dif between a bottle of sucks and your extract clone? The wort was very strong for me. I also tasted after 1st dry hop and it was very strong not to sucks like...

I also want to thank everyone for being helpful and not arrogant jerks... this noob appreciates it

I rocked to a smaller secondary and dry hopped again so it is a little clearer. Ill rack this straight to the keg on friday, set at 12 psi and forget it for a week in the kegerator. Glads I got two taps

The two ipa I have made before had seemed to get better after the 2-3 week in the bottle at cellar temps. I never aged them in fridge after that but they became better tasting as I let them age a bit. I will go with the carb it up at 12psi for a week in the kegerator this time because its easier...

Thanks. About how long do you find you need to age high gravity beers for cold? Both of you may have convinced me just to cool it. I keep my kegerator at 34 degrees.

I have read that slows the aging process (I could be wrong as all I have done is read about it) also if I age at room temp. (Charge purge charge purge charge at 30psi) will I need to "top off" with c02 as it absorbs into the beer? Also will the psi to proper levels 10-12 psi as it cools to 34...

Sg 1.018 I beleive (bubbly in wine theif) just started round two of dry hopoing... beer taste like it has a lot of alcohol... my question is. When I rack to keg should I pressurize it to 12psi then disconnect and store at room temp for a few weeks to age? Checking the psi every day or two and...

1st round of dryhopping in the carboy

My SG was right around 1.085 I took a reading tonight 5 days later and its around 1.020 lock has slowed a lot shoild I start dryhopping or wait a bit

I am also getting a 5 gal of big daddy ipa to "test" and play around with the kegerator (keeping 1 side commercial for a bit) interchangeable after conversion believe

May still secondary inbetween dry hopping thats how I always have done it 4 days primary. 4 days secondary then I'll go straight to keg 10-11 PSI for 2 weeks then try it. I close to a month before I get there. Prob add 1st dry hopping in another 10 or 12 days after checking SG. Then add 1st...

Also I see that you dry hop in keg. What do I need to dry hop in keg and transfer from dry hopping keg to serving keg? Guessing some sort of jumper line.. do I open keg 2 or go right in one of the balllock valves... should I just dryhop in carboy for my 1st rd? I have 2 corny kegs and a 5 gal...
