For those that tested the cask project on Saturday, what suggestions do you have for dry hopping?

I'm going to do one keg with Chinook, but there are 2 more kegs in storage, and I'd like to try something different with them, maybe even a half keg at a time.

I've had great luck with Comet.  I have some leaf N.Brewer if interested.

Started with Chinook.
Put an ounce in with half a keg....
So, when in doubt, and dry hopping, add less hops!
Holy freakin hop bomb, it's like all of a sudden all the hops from the IIPA recipe were whipped out from under the covers and slapped in your face!
Added another 10 litres to the keg, so now it's 1oz for a full keg, and it's more reasonable, but still a little overhopped...and before you all jump in with the laughy laughs at ME SAYING something is overhopped....I've already done that to myself.

No dry-hopping hopping on my part. I've had a couple of pints this weekend, and I think it could probably use a little something for sure.

Jake

no dry hop for me either ... I was pretty happy with it!

Quote from: "Kyle"Amarillo, for sure!


Going to do Amarillo today, didn't you mention it should be combined with something?
