Recipe dry hop question

[szap]

When the hop addition instructions on a recipe call for dry hop (5 days) or dry hop (7 days) does the number of days pertain to how many days to allow the fermentation to go before adding the hops or to how long to leave the hops in the wort.

A 5 day dry hop means to dry hop 5 days before you are going to bottle or keg. and personally i never leave my dry hops in longer then that. hope this helps.

cheers!
