Re: Experiences and issues with low O2 process
I just had another thought as well... I ferment in stainless conicals. When I cold crash I pressurize the conicals slightly so that air does not get pulled in. I'll have to look at modifying the conicals so that I can spud carbonate directly in the conical before transferring to a keg!

Think hooking the gas on at lower PSI for serving is going to slowly creep up 02 levels over time?

Re: Experiences and issues with low O2 process
Does anyone have an opinion on the results/process changes if:
1. Complete fermentation in conical
2. Dry hop (for styles that need)
3. Add a priming sugar solution to the conical
4. Proper purge and transfer to kegs
5. Spudd carbonate
?? wouldn't this result in the same O2 levels as completing the primary fermentation in the kegs and spudding but also allow for a dry hop?

There's no easy way out. There's no shortcut home.
