So one of my last brews is a simple grain bill, pale ale. I wanted a beer I could go grain from glass in about two weeks, force carbing of course.
Would I get any benefit of a really short dry hop, like 3 or 4 days?? Mainly, because I have read that hopping while fermentation is present can reduce the aroma. Since it's creating Co2 it's also purging the fermentor of the hop aroma.
Is it worth using the hops at all?? Anybody had any good aroma results from this length of dry hopping??
Need your input!! Much appreciated as always.
