After a bunch of reading on the forums, it appears like there are a large contingent of folks that don't bother with a secondary unless they are introducing additives or dry hopping. Given that you may normally use the primary-only method for, say, 4 weeks before bottling, what would be your typical schedule for dry hopping using a secondary?
For a hoppy APA I'm doing at the moment, I was thinking 2 weeks in the primary, then rack to secondary and dry hop for 2 weeks before bottling. Seem reasonable? Other recommendations? I'm certainly happy to wait patiently in either container to obtain a better tasting brew...
Cheers.
