[wobblywalker]

HI, I WAS JUST READING 'BREW BILLY'S COMMENTS ON HOP PELLETS(SEP 20..9.11PM).I WILL SAY I'M A LITTLE CONFUSED.IN TESS & MARK'S CLONE BOOK,I BELIEVE THEY USE PELLETS,AND THEY SUGGEST FOR BITTERING TO USE 10% MORE IF USING LEAF,I CAN GO WITH THAT.HOWEVER,SHOULDN'T YOU ALSO NEED MORE FOR FLAVOUR & AROMA,I REALLY AM AT A DEAD END AND NEED ADVICE.THANKS.

SHHHH!!!!

afaik pellets are 'stronger' release more oils readily due to increased surface area exposure, tho are more difficult to filter in the biol so better suited to dry hopping as they can settle out more readily.
