14oz x 28g= 392 gramsSorry yes grams per litre . gpl or more correctly g/L.
3.785 liters x 5 gallons = 18.925 liters
392/18.925 = 20.71 g/l
Also, in terms of PH I have seen it stated that a general rule of thumb is that for each 1lb/bbl of dry hop an increase in .14 ph units can be expected. I have not tested or confirmed this but have seen it from a pretty reliable source. So you can aim for a pre dry hop PH utilizing this expected increase...and see how it works out.
And if my math is correct an easy way to convert lb/bbl to a five gallon batch is this:
.3875 x how ever many ounces
So...
.3875 x 8 oz.(just as an example) = 3.1 lb/bbl
So 3.1 x .14 = .434 (the expected ph increase)
