dry hop update

1 07 2008

so saturday afternoon i tossed an ounce of amarillo and an ounce of centennial whole hops in the secondary.  ok, tossed is not exactly right… more like i dipped my hand in star san and dropped them in a couple at a time.  tedious but worth it.  couple more days and bottling time…





dry hoppage

ok, after getting some feedback from the good folks at Brewboard, i’m planning on dry hopping my dipa with a couple of ounces of centennial and amarillo for 3-4 days.  it’s clearing up nicely in the secondary already, i’ll give it another week or so then add the dry hops…

just tested the SG, from 1.074 a week ago, it’s down to 1.014! hurray for US-05 yeast!  assuming it doesnt drop any more overnight, i’ll rack it to secondary tomorrow night, i think.
