Recently I brewed a Caribbou Slobber from Northern Brewer and split my 5 gallon batch in two. One half I bottled in the original recipe, the other half I dry hopped 5 days with 1/2 oz of Fuggle, then bottled. Two weeks later the first batch carbonated just fine, but the second batch with the dry hop addition is REALLy overcarbonated. I used 1/3 cup of white sugar for each 2 1/2 gallons. The question is: is there any relation to Dry Hopping and over-carbonation given identical bottling procedures?
