Hi all, I'm hoping for some advice - I've just dry hopped my first non kit and kilo brew (apa with just light dry extract and various hops, using safale us-05. I got to the theoretical end SG, popped the lid,' chucked in the hops, agitated and re sealed and got all anxious and confused. Most stuff I have read has talked about dry hopping for a couple of days and then chilling for a while. My concerns are that I currently cannot chill the fermenter (it is sitting at about 21c) and I have 44 litres in a 60 litre fermenter I am not 100 percent convinced of the seal on. How long is reasonable to sit the beer for before risk of off flavours And infection begins to rise?
Hope someone can give me some tips, ideas and new sources of confusion.
Cheers, Tom
