I am dry hoping my first IPA right now. I put in the pellet hops yesterday, and it is at 65 degrees. I was planning on letting it sit for about 10 days. two questions:
1. Will the hop pellets drop to the bottom of the carboy by 10 days?
2. What temp should the beer stay at? I would love to have it at 35* so that I could cold crash it at the same time, but I dont know if that is too cold for dry hoping.
What temp to dry hop at?

Re: What temp to dry hop at?
Dry hopping works at any temp but you will extract different characteristics at different temps. I would leave the temp where it is for a week and then cold crash. The hops will drop to the bottom.
