Dry Hop With Wet Hops

[greyghost]

I have a wet hop pale ale in my fermentor I would like to dry hop with wet hops. Should I have concerns?

You mean freshly picked hops? Those might be full of bugs, and will have micro-organisims. High risk for contamination, I would think.

Yes off the bine and in to the fermentor.

I wouldn't.

I did and the harvest ale has been a hit. Do it!

I say go for it. You never know until you do it and the idea is cool.
