Got a coopers wheat beer in the fv, been in there around 12 days and it's down to around 1007 so it's ready to bottle. Right at the start I added some orange zest, crushed coriander seeds to a pot of boiling water along with 25g of dry fuggle hops. Been tasting when checking the reading and I'm really happy with the spice and how clean/smooth it seems however I don't get much of the hops coming through. Reading a bit I've started to wonder about dry hopping, I have some muslin bags and some marbles but didn't want to ruin my brew at this stage and don't want to delay the bottling for too long as worried about it going off. Am I best to leave it or would you guys dry hopp? If so how much and for how long?

Thanks for any advice.
 
Wheat beers aren't supposed to be particularly hoppy, however it's your beer so a hop tea or dry hopping would impart more aroma and flavour.
 
Thanks guys, I'll leave well alone and look at doing it on another brew ;)
