cold crashing?

[troyp42]

Should I take out my dry hops before I cold crash.

If you've dry hopped in a hop sock or bag of some sort then yes. If you threw them in loose then no, they will just sink to the bottom with the yeast.

I've considered doing this for some future brews, but while it seems many people have done this without issue, I'm worried about the extra pressure forming in the bottle from the beer warming up during carbonation. Is the pressure added just not enough to worry about or is it more a matter of your cold crash temp vs. your conditioning temp?

I may be wrong but from what i found on this forum you should bring it back to temp once you have cold crash before putting in the bottle. This is what I have done myself and the beer stayed clear once I started drinking it.
