For various reasons that I'm aware of, my little yeastie boys quit early and stuck my ipa at 1.020. I needed it much dryer so after all else failed I pitched in a single packet of us-05 and didn't have much hope. 2 days went by and no change in gravity, so I decided to move on and I loaded my dry-hops into primary.
This morning, a full 72 hours after pitching the new yeast, I now have some visible signs of fermentation on the surface, as well as frequent bubbling in the airlock (every 10 secs or so).
So that's a nice surprise, but generally speaking can there be any negative effects to dry hopping during active fermentation? Other than "the dry hopping won't be as effective"...
