I generally dry hop in secondary since I often harvest yeast, but I am rarely looking for a quick turnaround. Sometimes I forget about beers.

I sometimes dry hop in the keg as well. This works best with whole hops rather than pellets. Just put a stainless hose braid over the dip tube and you are good to go. It works best if you leave the hops in the keg at room temperature for several days rather than directly to the fridge.

I'm sure others in here use a 10-gallon cooler as a mash tun? I'm working on a recipe for 10 gallons of an IPA for Zapp's and I'm worried I might be overflowing the mash tun. I'm going to need about 30 pounds, so I'm already going to have to make it a thicker mash than usual.

Is there any way 30 pounds is going to fit or should I partial mash and add some extract to finish it off?
