I am about to do my second batch of cider. This time I would like to dry hop it after primary is finished. I will not rack the cider over to a secondary. I will be fermenting just under 3 gallons so I can keg 2.5 gallons and force carbonate the cider.
With that being said, here is the list of hops I have access to in my freezer. I was thinking of 1-2 ounces of hops total. But I'm open to any suggestions, for I have lots of hops (+/- a pound), unless noted in the list below. Any combination of hops or just one single kind, I'm open for all suggestions. Also I will be using S-04 yeast. I don't plan on back sweetening the cider either, just ferment, dry hop and keg. I hope all of this information helps you help me. Cheers!
Also, a fellow home brewer brought in a cider dry hopped with Amarillo and Citra. That was amazing, but thought maybe I would do something a little different or just copy him. Still not sure...
