After a week I racked my beer into a secondary fermenter and I threw in some Willamette hops pellets to dry-hop. For how long should I dry-hop?
 
i usually dryhop for about 4-7 days depending on the recipe. an ipa i did i left it for about 10
 
3.3lbs lme
3.3lbs ame
1 1/2 tbs. chinook 80 min
1 1/2 tbs. glacier 80 min
1/2 tbs. kent goldings 15 min
1 tbs. glacier 5 min
1 tbs. kent goldings 5 min
1 tbs. willamette 5 min

dry-hopped w/ 3 tbs. willamette hops
 
I agree, I would leave it in for atleast 10, if not 14 days. But I can't really talk, my last batch has turned to bitter water and I figure out why...But the only thing I would say, looking at your recipe, there might not be enough malt in it and you might experiance my current problem. Best of luck!
