    Improve dry hopping

    Hello, The last two beers I brewed had lots of dry hopping but unfortunately I'm a bit disapointed with the result. The beers (a white IPA and a West Coast IPA) are perfectly fine for all the other things but the flavours that should come with dry hopping are not present enough IMHO. My...

    Dry hopping time and what to use to dry hop

    I have read discussions of when and how long to dry hop and it seems to vary, based on hops used, how much taste and aroma or lack of. I am sure it's been discussed here , I checked the forum and saw a few discussions but none really on time and what to put the hops in. I usually ferment 3-5...

    Forced carbonation ballet

    I am on a short schedule for my next brew that is currently in the fermenter. For this one I will dry hop in the keg with a hop-sock and use a floating dip-tube. Because of the tight time schedule my plan is to use the ol' overpressure the keg and roll it / shake it around for a while. My...

    Split dry hopping

    I’ve got a single malt, single hop brew going at the moment. I’m planning to dry hop for 3 days before I bottle, but I’d like to try a small amount with some tea in addition to the hops. What’s the best way to take out maybe 5 litres to try this experiment with (fermenting in a plastic...

    Dry hopping

    Hi all I have made an Smash of Marris otter and centennial. I want to dry hop later this week. Fermentation is nearly over gurgling away at between 20 and 24 degrees. My question relates to temperature of wort for the dry hopping process. Do I need to maintain the temperature for this...

    Dry Hopping in Fermentor

    I have been brewing quite a while, but I have decided to start experimenting with dry hopping. For my current batch, I am making 2.5 gallons of a basic IPA. After the beer had dropped to a SG of about 1.020, I added 1/2 ounce of pellet hops to the fermenter, contained in a stainless mesh hop...

    High Temperature Dry Hopping Question

    Hey everyone, I’m using a Kveik strain of yeast which is currently fermenting at around 90 degrees and wondering if that would be too warm to dry hop. Will I get off aromas? Thanks!

    Whirlpool & Dry Hop amounts...?

    Hi Everyone, So i have been getting help on here and on other forums to get advice on my first real brewing recipe. Everything looks good, as far as I see, but some people are saying I need more hops in the WP and DH for this 2 gallon batch. Can anyone give me an estimate usage rate per...

    New to dry hopping

    I haven't dry hopped in a long long time, so essentially I'm considering myself new to it. Yesterday, I dry hopped my barleywine. It had been sitting in the secondary for about a month or so. It's now showing some action (bubbling near the surface, see picture attached) although I don't see...

    Confusion over dry hop schedule in recipe

    Hi, I started my very first batch this past weekend with some experienced friends helping. We're making the Trillium Inspired Pale Ale Clone. All is well so far and lots of bubbling today. The problem is how we're not agreeing on how to interpret the dry hop schedule. Both Columbus and...

    Update: Fermentation time, Wyeast 1318, thick krausen, dry hopping advice

    Hello, I need some advice for my dry hopping. I am currently fermenting an NEIPA using Wyeast 1318 London Ale III and after 8 days I am still waiting for it to finish. I read that this yeast is a top cropper, meaning that the krausen will not fall to the bottom, but will stay on top. Is that...

    Don't want clove flavor

    I brewed an apa with Cascade hops for bittering and dry hopping. My boys don't like the clove flavor. What can I use that would be mildly citrusy without the clove notes?
