It's brew day on Thursday and I'll have 25g of whole Cascade hops which I've previously used for dry hopping.

Question is can I re-use these as bittering hops at 60 minutes and add flavour/aroma hops later in the boil? The thinking is that dry hopping doesn't 'drive-out' the bittering quality of the hops.

Any ideas please.
 
Dry hopping has no effect on the bitter qualities of the hops so I don't see any problem with re-using them as bittering hops. How long ago was it since you used them for dry hopping?

Still in FV2. I plan to remove the hops from FV2 on the same day I brew with them. Should be OK then?
