The keg hopping method has not produced any off flavors that I can pick up. My kegs only last at most 2 weeks once carbed.

A cascade smash is in my monthly rotation. Something easy drinking. Nothing overly complicated.

Thank you. I am originally from Boston but once in New Orleans 20 years ago there was no going back. My whole family is from Long Island, Garden City specifically. New Orleans is great! I highly recommend visiting once all this virus stuff has been resolved.

I switched to No Chill pretty early on in my brewing career and have never looked back. At Flameout I throw in half of my flavor hops and once the temp hits 140ish I throw in the rest. I rack it into my fermentation vessel the next day along with my yeast and let the yeast do their thing.

If it a ale I generally leave it alone for 10/11 days and then throw it in a keg and try not to drink it for at least a week.

Greetings from the best city in America (in my humble opinion) NOLA! I have been brewing since January 11th 2013. I did brew a few times using Mr Beer back before Katrina but I did not catch the bug until 2013. I fell down the rabbit hole and have not looked back. Its like cooking but with...

I have the last few brews just thrown the bag of dry hops into the keg on the day I transfer it from the fermentation vessel. I pull the bag out when the keg kicks.
