gelatine and dry-hops Q

Ive got a pale ale that spent one week in primary and 2 weeks seconday in the keg. It has a some weirdness that i wont get into now. Hiwever, i want to hit it with gelatine to clear it up as its hazy as heck. I also want to dry hop its face off to round it out a bit.

Its chilled 41 degrees and is flat. Should i DH and gelatinize at tbe same time? Im in no rush on this one since i have 10 gal of one of my favs right next to it. How long should i wait to gas it up?

There are two schools of thought on this, as far as I've seen. First is dry-hop after fining with gelatin. Your beer will probably still have a little bit of hop particulates floating around, but you'll get exactly what you intend (or at least, what you performed) from your dry-hop. The second is dry-hopping before gelatin. You might lose a little bit of the flavor by fining after dry-hopping, but your beer will be clear. Hope this helps.

Im gonna gel it and then chuck the hops in. Ill dh with leaf to cut down on parrticulates. Ill start carbing when i hop it.

Cool. Post some pics when you're done if you feel like it, I just used gelatin for the first time on my Amarillo Pale Ale and am curious how yours is going to turn out. I went the other route and dry-hopped for three days, crashed for two, added gelatin two days ago and am still waiting for some of the floaty hops to sink to the bottom. I figure another day or two and I'll rack out. I used about a tablespoon and a half of gelatin to about twelve ounces of hot water, from the sounds of it that should have been plenty.
