Cold crashing and dry hopping

[will_rouse]

I'm doing an IPA and I'm going to dry hop In my primary. I always cold crash two days after my fermentation. I'm planning on dry hopping for the first time, I want to dry hop for at least 5 days. Do I need to cold crash the last two days of my dry hop or wait and cold crash after I dry hop?

I would cold crash after, I presume that makes the cleanest beer.

That's what I was thinking. I just didn't want to kill the aroma by cold crashing to early. I could transfer to a secondary but I see no reason why I have to.

I like IPA's when they are young.
Schedule like this seems nice to me (for 2 weeks fermentation):
- dry hop after 7 days in primary
- move hops 5 days after and crash cold for 2 days
- bottle/keg
