For all of us that wish we could dry hop in kegs (and wished we had kegs), I was able to dry hop in the tap a draft, and it's sooo good!

all I did was grab a sanitized (ish) hop sack (little muslin 50 cent things), added 0.3 oz of columbus, and tied some floss to the rim. I made it short so the hops don't get sucked by the tap-a-draft tube. the hop sack kinda sits near the front for the tap a draft.

so, for anyone wondering, it works and it's great!
 
haha, I should have taken pictures... I didn't "lock" the TAD last night, and woke up/opened the fridge to a puddle of beer. My girlfriend wasn't to happy...

So, pictures will have to wait for next time...

FYI, fruit + IPA columbus = gross
 
Resurrecting an old thread but I'm curious how this worked out. Did you have the floss outside of the TAD system so you could retrieve the bag? How difficult was it to remove? Could you tell a marked difference in aroma/taste?

thx
