Plenty of dry hopping threads about pellets, but I'm using whole hops/plugs. I've had great results using 1 to 1.5 lbs/bbl added at about 90% attenuation, for four days at fermenting temp. then another week after dropping to conditioning temp. I've been using large nylon coarse mesh bags with weights, works well. BUT... I want to just toss the darn things in without a bag. Will they sink eventually? Will they just float on top forever? Will racking to another tank help?
I'm sure the aroma contribution will be much better adding loose, but will it just be too much trouble in the end?
