How much Dextrose should I add for an IPA brew that im going to bottle
 
How long is a piece of string?

We need a lot more information... What are you using the dextrose for? Raising the abv? Carbonating in the bottle? What is your batch size? Temperature of fermenting beer....

If for carbonation check Google for carbonation calculators they'll help you determine how much dextrose to use in your bottling bucket. I use an app brewzor calculator but there are many out there.
 
The calculators are the best way to go if you want precision. If you want to thumbnail it, for a five gallon batch, John Palmer suggests 3/4 cup of corn sugar or 2/3 cup of table (cane) sugar in his How to Brew book.

I'm moving this from the HBT announcements and help section to the bottling/kegging section.
