Hi there everyone.
I recently kegged a belgian india red ale, which I had dry hopped in the fermenter. Upon racking into the keg, a bit of the hop debris has gotten its way into the keg and now into the beer line and tap. I can only assume that there is more at the bottom of the keg at the pick up tube just waiting to clog up the system again.
What is the best thing to do in this situation? My thoughts were either:
1) Rack from the top of the keg into another keg (however, since it is now carbed, probably not a good idea) or;
2) Turn the keg upside down once to mix up the hop debris and just hope for the best.
Cheers for your advise
