Only added half the hops

[RIC0]

Just realized after 3 weeks the $hitty day stout I made up, which is still in the primary, only got 1 oz instead of 2 oz hops added during the boil.

Suggestions??

Leave it be or throw in the remaining hops now for a few days?

If you throw them in now you'll just be dry hopping. Which probably isn't what you want with a stout. I say leave it as is, the beer will be a bit more malt forward and taste a bit sweeter which isn't far off the style.

I made a similar mistake on an IPA. Took a sample, made hop tea, treated it proportionally. The wife and I both liked the hop tea sample better. So I poured the rest of the hop tea into the fermenter. This was just last week, so I can't tell if it worked. But you might taste a sample, and decide.
