Racked to the keg the other day and accidentally took more sediment than expected, specifically hop matter. My syphon struggled in the last quarter of the carboy to the point where I had to unclog it a couple times.
I guess I can take apart the outpost and clear out the dip tube, but what if I have way too much hop matter in the bottom? Am I just going to keep clogging it?
I set the PSI to 50 and tried to run it through the tap and still only got between zero and a trickle. I also tried blowing gas through the outpost and still got nothing when I switched back.
I know it works because I ran sanitizer through the tap before I filled the keg. So the conclusion is definitely that it's clogged with hops.
What can I do?
