I plan to hang the mesh bag for my first dry hop attempt in the keg. My issue is that I only have 3 gallon kegs due to the wife not allowing me to remove the upper shelf in our basement fridge, so I split 6 gallon batches into 2 kegs of which one is sitting at basement temps until the other is finished. Would it be best to wait until the week before you plan to carbonate and throw in the fridge before dry hopping the second keg?
I no longer use a secondary, but normally wait 16-21 days before kegging to let the yeast clean up the beer in the primary. The IPA I just brewed called for Denny's Favorite 50 yeast, which kept bubbling the airlock for 11 days, which I am not use to. A lot of other yeast go gangbusters for 4-5 days and then nothing. If I start dry hopping in the keg at day 16, is that still enough time for the yeast to have cleaned up the beer in the primary? Can you consider the week dry hopping before refrigeration as secondary time? Just trying to collapse the schedule to around the same 21days if possible.
