So I racked my IPA (first brew!) over to the secondary to dry hop. Yes I know that I could have dry hopped in the primary, but wanted to free it up for another beer I did this weekend. I tossed 2oz Australian Galaxy into the sanitized carboy, gently siphoned the beer out of the primary, and as it filled the hops came up to the surface and have stayed there for 4 days. I suppose I assumed they would eventually drift to the bottom, but didn't know what the norm was, as this is my first beer. There is some sediment on the bottom, but the majority of the hops are on top. Any issue? Is this normal?
My plan was to dry hop for 10 days, then cold crash for 3 in my beer fridge (CL special!) before bottling. Any advice on this technique?
