Im trying this method for the first time but am having an issue with the keg sealing properly.
Ive put hop pellets into a mesh hop bag and then tied a length of 10# fishing line around the bag leaving a long enough tag end to hang outside the keg. My intent was to have an easy method to retrieve the bag after the dry hop period is over. I also wanted to carb the beer at the same time but the keg does not seal at the point where the fishing line meets the o-ring on the lid.
Is there another product anyone knows of that will allow me to run the retrieval line while not breaking the seal?
Should I forget about trying to carb and dry hop at the same time?
Should I forget about the retrieval line and just let the hops sit in the tank until the keg is kicked?
Thanks guys and gals
