What is an Aroma Hop-Steep?

I found it in a recipe that had a 5 stage hops schedule, 1/2oz (60min), 1/2oz (45min), 1/2oz (30min), 1/2oz (15min), 1/2oz (Aroma Hop-Steep)

Thanks

You toss in the hops at flame out.

Ok that makes sense now! Guess I should have thought it through! I did a search on HBT but found 0 search results.

This is more commonly known as the flame out addition. There is also FWH - first wort hopping, that is when an all grain brewer adds hops to the boil kettle as the wort is drained from the mash tun. Mash hopping, which is add hops to the mash. And dry hopping, which is adding hops to the fermenter (usually after fermentation is mostly completed or in the secondary)
