Hops Pellets
Pellets have improved over the years and are easier to store however there are some downsides:
-
Pellets sink and dissolve, creating “sludge” on the bottom of your brew kettle or fermenter.
-
If left un-bagged, the pellets tend to rise to the surface during the boil and form a layer on the kettle’s rim, which means they’re not being utilized.
-
Some brewers believe that whole hops are less harsh than pellets, making them a better choice for beer making.
02
Whole Flower Hops

By incorporating these raw hops, you can enhance the natural taste of your beer and unleash your creativity.
