Hey everyone, first time user and post here, and I'm still relatively new to the brewing scene. Just have a few questions I hope someone might be able to answer. I'm doing my first solo brew right now and it's bubbling away in my fermenter, but I'm thinking about dry hopping it. For a rundown on what I've got, I'm doing the Brewer's Best IPA. It had 1 oz Cascade to start, 2 oz Columbus at 30 minutes, and 1.5 oz Cascade again at flameout. I've been thinking about dry hopping it in a secondary, but I have no idea where to start, maybe you guys can help out.
How do I choose which hops to add, when to add them, and how much? Is there any sort of guide as to what hops go well together? Should I stick to what I used during the boil or add in different varieties? Like I said, I'm still somewhat new at this, and if anyone can point me in the right direction, or has done a similar kit and could help me out, I'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance!
