Hey guys,

I had several ounces of hops in my beer fridge which accidentally got turned off for 2 days.

Do you think the hops are still ok? I won't dry hop with them in case of bugs, just in the boil.

FYI - I threw out the bolognese sauce that was also in there!

Thanks!

If they are sealed properly you should be okay....depending on hop year, temp, etc....

They are spoiled. Send them to me and I'll make sure they are disposed of properly.

thay cant thaw they are DRY. and they are fine.

hops are picked just once a year in each hemisphere.
so before vacume sealing and refregaration hops were just stored dry and used for 10 to 11 months till the next crop, compaire to your 2 days at room temp not kuch to worry about

Unless you lived in Death Valley and it was August, 2 days won't be a problem.

thanks. i figured as much.

and yes - 'thaw' was not, perhaps, the best choice of word. but they ceased to be frozen.

all good in the hood.

I once left thew garage freezer unplugged for a week in the summer. The smell of a case of rotting Snow Crab Legs will remind you that the cord is unplugged!
Your hops on the other hand will be fine.
