I am working roughly om 1l wort pr 100 g hops, so in this case i will need to add 2.3 litres on top of my normal losses in order to get somewhere near the 25 litres.

Since getting my gas set up i have been struggling a little in getting decent control of the boil. the dial has no way of being marked so it is very much " by eye"
in addition the weather has a lot to say I brew in the garage and we are stil only just over 10 degrees. When its cold out i need to have the gas on higher in order to maintain a bol. i am as a rule about 1-1.5 litres low on volume, but always a little higher on OG.

Questions

Having never brewed anything like this before is the amount in dry hop enough and should i maybe let it stand longer than 5 days?

Some of this will be bottles, some will be kegged.

I am wondering if i should maybe up the volume to 30-35 litres and split it between 2 FV, one with say amarillo as dry hop and the other with Simcoe or nothing.

what is the consencous of opinion here guys?

Does anyone else find with heavy dry hopping that you get a hop haze which is not like yeast suspension. Even on the shelf weeks it doesn't really settle out properly.

Big time.Nothing you can do about it.Embrace the haze.
A lot of the big hoppy American beers have the same issue.
