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 the packet came with a pin hole in the vac pack, will these still be ok?

Thanks in advance!
 
I would put all hops in the freezer it I had room so only opened packs in there in a ziplock bag. Unopened in a bin in the garage.
 
I bought an Andrew James vacuum sealer for opened packs and they stay fresh without freezing.
