Great way to get back into it! How much did you keg hop with?

I’ve had 2 or 3 beers that didn’t come out like I wanted and one almost undrinkable and keg hopping saved them. Even just one ounce us usually enough for me but I mostly used 2.
That just can’t be done when bottling and more proof that in the long run, kegging saves time and money if you have the space and ‘investment’ money.

The Amber Ale had some Willamette through the end of the boil and I added 1 oz of Cascade to the keg in a sack so it is floating on top along with the floating pick up tube.

The IPA had Columbus for bittering and 3 oz Centennial for a 30 min hopstand. I added 1 oz of Citra and 1 oz of Mosaic to separate sacks and again they are floating on top along with the pick up tube.

I added the keg hops to both beers after they were carbonated and were in the kegs for 2 weeks or so. I just felt they both needed more and man it made an awesome difference. The Amber is real nice and smooth, balanced with great but not over the top character. The IPA is a little less than refined, it's quite Dank! The Mosaic was questionable out of the package, maybe they were old but I used them anyway. Just didn't seem as clean, fresh and potent as the Citra I was adding along with them.

I will be using keg hoping again for sure. They are staying in there till I cash the kegs.
