Dry hopping an English IPA

[UncleDave]

I've looked around at many English IPA recipes and have noticed that not many call for dry-hopping. Most of the time, the schedule looks like 60, 15, and 5 minute boils.

I have a English IPA that has been in the primary for three weeks and I was thinking about racking it to a secondary vessel and adding an ounce or two of EKG and Fuggles. Good idea?

I dry hopped the last IPA I made with 2 ounces of EKG for four days.

EKG is great for dry hopping, lovely aroma.

I'm thinking .75 ounces of each for five days. Have always steered toward American IPAs, so I'm really excited to see how this one turns out.

As long as you stick to English hops, or possibly one of the noble hops.
