Dry Hopping Under Pressure

[Lynchy17]

Hello all,

I am using my pressure fermentor for the first time and still waiting for a part to arrive that allows me to dry hop oxygen free.

I wonder if the technique I used today will be okay.

- beer has been in fermzilla all rounder for 10 days

- dry hopped today (3days prior to kegging)

1 - I purged Co2 out of fermzilla

2 - opened fermzilla and added hops

3 - closed the lid and added pressure back to 12psi with Co2 purging oxygen out as I go

4 - reset spundling valve to 12psi

 

Will this be okay or am I in for a nasty tasting beer?

thats how i do it  if i cant do it oxygen free

however since obtaining this 




i no longer have to worry about  the oxygen   and this hop bong has a few other uses as well  and i assume this is what your waiting on parts for?

That’s exactly what I’m waiting for. Thanks, glad to know I haven’t completely ballsed it up.

what parts are you waiting for?

did you puchase the items seperately or as 1 unit?

Home brewers have been brewing for many years without hop bongs, and ballsing things up.

I’m waiting for that hop bong from Kegland. I bought it as the complete package but they are currently out of stock.

Apologies, my comment was misleading.

I have put an order in over the phone with Kegland. I haven’t paid yet but I will once it comes in. 

They told me it is everything I need, so hopefully they are true to their word.
