Hi I'm in the middle of brewing my first IPA. Its a single hop IPA. I really like Citra hops so that's the hop I chose to use. It's a one gallon batch to test the recipe. So far I've added a total of an once of citra to the boil. With my hop schedule my IBU calculator calculates its at about 70 IBUs right now.
Now I'm almost done with primary fermentation and I'm almost ready to rack over to secondary. My recipe that i originally created from looking at other recipes and tweaking it to my own, calls for 0.6 ounces of citra to dry hop for 7 days. My question is: If I really like the taste when I rack to secondary should I still do the dry hoping? How much flavor/bitterness will this amount add? I'm a big fan of hop flavor but not really bitterness.
Thanks for any advice.
