Brewed the Kern's River IPA clone last night and am looking for a little help. Pitched a 900ml starter (largest I could make) of WLP001, next step is 12 days of dry hopping in 3 day increments. She's in a brew bucket now but am not sure about dry hopping in 5gal carboys. Should I dry hop in primary after fermentation stops or rack to carboy? I have a 6.5 gal carboy, 5 gal carboys or other buckets but am worried about getting the muslin bags out of a carboy afterwards. Never dry hopped before and I don't keg so will be bottling. Thanks...
 
Also, I only own two small muslin bags, have some medium size bags arriving tomorrow, (4"x 6") and have a medium and large paint strainer bag avalable. Trying to plan my attack once ayeast are done (OG 1.074)...thanks
 
I would just dry hop in the primary. Unless i really want the yeast, I just throw them in without a hop bag.
So your going to dry hop 4 times?
