hops

I've never grown hops before but thought I'd give it a go. So in Early February I planted one rhizome of cascade and one centennial. They started growing after around 1 week with two shoots from the Centennial and one from the Cascade. After 8 weeks I had the these . Cascade and Centennial...

I bought these hop package recently The 1st (left to right) is 2021, AA 4,3%. The 2nd, 2022, AA 2,6%. And 3rd, the same, but from a different brand. And, WTF!?! I could tell them apart. Visual, 1st was dark green, 2nd light green and 3rd looks drier, brownish comparing to the others. About...

Hi, I brewed a NEIPA about a month or so ago, and every pour I've had from this batch has been so much more bitter than expected. I've brewed NEIPAs before without too much of an issue, but changed up my hop additions/timings in this brew. Is there anything I have done that would make this so...

In the next few weeks I'm going to be brewing a pale ale as an experiment to test out the potency of hops ONLY in the boil / whirlpool vs. in the boil / WP AND as a dry hop. It will be a basic smash beer with an English ale yeast, probably. Your help is needed to get me fair test results! And...

Hi all, I’m new to home brewing, just making my first brew using the Merseyside dockers ipa kit. There’s something that’s confusing me though and I would appreciate any advice. The instructions say to ‘add the foil bag of hops as below; Group A on day 5 Group B on day 8 Group C on day 10...

Hey fellow Beeros 2022 is the year I come up with my own perfect recipe! Hoping to have a brew perfected for my wedding in July (we will see) Have been brewing for a year, mainly BIAB all grain, with limited equipment, but some pretty decent results. Now I'm moving into my own recipes rather...

It has been a while since my last post but I wanted to post some experiences with brewing with homegrown fresh hops. I planted two Centennial hops in front of my home three years ago. Even though this year was very windy and rainy in The Netherlands the hops were quite sheltered. It ended up...

Hi, I'm thinking of buying a custom made extract kit from my local homebrew shop, to brew a recipe I found online. One of the instructions for ordering the kit confused me and I'm hoping someone could clarify. It reads: "Please work out the hop weights required based on the alpha acids listed...

Wotcha. I just made a festival suffolk dark kit and, having read here and elsewhere that the supplied batch of fuggles hops over does the bitterness, I opted to add half the supplied amount closer to barreling than instructed by the kit. After 5 weeks in the PB the result is, you guessed it, not...

Hi, I'm in my first year of growing hops and I was wondering if anyone else, particularly in the Cambridge area, has started harvesting yet. I know it's just about time, and my Fuggles look/feel ready. The Goldings look like they need a little more time. Cheers, Rob

Hi, I can't seem to find advice on this anywhere so I put a have a couple of queries for the group: 1. When storing hops, would you put unopened hops in the freezer? 2. If you open vac packed hops, will they deteriorate if still kept in a freezer? 3. I recently purchased some hops off ebay and...

Hi everyone, I've just finished my first all grain brew, which is a black ipa, and its in the fermenter. I was wondering after how long you add the dry hops and any recommendations for what to add?

Hello! Brand new brewer here. I’m looking to make a Heferweisen, and the recipe calls for 0.8 oz Hallertau (4% AA, pellets). My local brew shop gave me 0.8 oz Hallertau 5% AA, dry cones). Could I get some advice on how I should convert pellets to dry cones? Is what I have ok to use, or do I...
