    Nothin but foam

    The more I read hear the more confused I get. After kegging I set my reg to 30psi overnight at 36deg. Next day knocked it down to 20psi. Day 3 I purged to sample and got nothing but a slow drip of foam at 10psi. Cranked up to 20 and got better flow but all foam. Let it go for another day with no...

    Dry hopping - too long?

    Dry hopped 11 days ago when I transferred to secondary thinking fermentation was complete. Sure enough yeast woke up and are still working. Should I rack to a keg to separate the beer from the hops which have mostly sunk to the bottom? Heard prolonged exposure to hops creates grassy flavors...

    First time Dry Hopping - uh oh

    Hi. First time dry hopping (American SMASH from NB). Beer is in secondary for 4 days so far and there is still considerable activity visible. Particles falling and rising and the beer doesn't seem to be clarifying as previous batches have without dry hopping. Recipe calls for 1 week in secondary...
