    I'm able to view the picture. It's just not embedded in the post

    As long as you have a co2 blanket on while you clear the poppet, you should be fine

    New England IPA "Northeast" style IPA

    If the pours are ok and just slow, I’d let it be. This used to happen to me a lot with stouts. No matter how meticulous I was, some mixture of cacao and/or coffee beans would make their way into my liquid line. I just lived with the slow pours.

    Sounds like it’ll make a great beer. If you’re specifically looking for superdelic characteristics, they may be outshined by the citra, but it may work better as a supporting hop 🤷‍♂️ keep us posted!

    “Hoppendectomy” 9.8% This was the beer I used superdelic and mosaic spectrum in. Definitely the best hazy beer I’ve made. My appendix was removed while this was conditioning. Made for a fun name 😂.

    I have the same hop bong and plan on using that. My only concern is fitting in my chest freezer with the new TC adapter. Do you have a rough idea of how tall the corny keg is with the new lid and a capped butterfly valve? I added 1# brewer's crystal and 0.5# of malto to my last TIPA, and it...

    New England IPA "Northeast" style IPA

    I fill with starsan solution and make sure I get every crevice soaked for a minute or two. Before pushing the starsan out with co2 I burp the keg a few times with co2 to make sure it's fully purged. Then I push the starsan out with co2. I use a floating dip tube in my dry hop keg, so I have to...

    I was planning on adding to serving keg but opted to include it in my dry hop keg. I also changed up my dry hop process of shaking/rocking the keg every few hours. I’d flip it upside down for about an hour, then roll, then flip it back upright and roll. I did this every 8 hours or so. I also...

    I reread my comment and didn’t mean for it to come across as confrontational. Tone doesn’t transfer well online

    Not sure if it’s the spectrum or superdelic (first time using both) but this triple came out great!

    He never mentioned quantity/ratio didn’t matter on hot side, just selection. There’s a reason breweries use their hops that don’t rank well in their sensory analysis in the whirlpool as opposed to cold side.

    the hops need to breathe, too

    Do you adjust post-dry hop or do you adjust earlier and design your recipes to land here? Citric or phosphoric on cold side?

    New England IPA "Northeast" style IPA

    will do! I asked about them before using them if you search back. I know some people here had good things to say about it

    New England IPA "Northeast" style IPA

    I have a batch nearing terminal that I'm about to dry hop. I went with simcoe cryo and motueka to pair with superdelic. 6oz/2oz/4oz of superdelic/simcoe cryo/motueka

    Does anyone here adjust pH post dry hop with citric acid? If so, what is the usual amount required per 0.1 pH drop in 5 gallons. Going to do some math in the morning but figured I’d ask for anecdotal experience, first.

    I have the first one that introduced the tri-clamps. I thought it was the newest one, but I just saw the 3.2 that has an improved bottom opening and collection chamber. I think it's great for the cost, but I definitely need to upgrade eventually. I find that one dump of the collection...

    New England IPA "Northeast" style IPA

    good call. I'm working with the fermzilla where the dry hopper is either the collection jar underneath or the hop bong above. I've had some poor results when using the bottom jar, so I abandoned that idea. The hop bong works well, but I get better results when transferring off of the yeast to...
