Title: Keeping hops fresh in storage
Post by: Beerbuddha on January 25, 2018, 09:58:42 AM
So i came up with little device that removes the oxygen from the storage bottle. Like bulk buy if grain I like to bulk buy hops I use mostly. But storage is the issue so here is my oxygen removal device. Cheap as chips.

Just drill hole in lid. Add the smc connection. Hook up co2 and purge three times. Then place the plug in connection to keep oxygen out.
