I have read here on these forums that cold crashing can pull those delicious hop oils out of the fermented beer; therefore, one should not dry hop prior to cold crashing. So my question is...
If I cold crash, when and at what temperature do I dry hop? If I cold crash, do I hold the beer in the upper 30s F for 3-4 days and then dry hop for the prescribed time at the same temperature? Or, after the cold crash, do I let the temperature rise back into the lower 60s F prior to dry hopping?
By the way, I do both my cold crash and dry hopping in the primary.
Thanks in advance for your help.
