TLDR but azacca is a tasty but subtle hop and very likely could be drowned out by el dorado in particular but same with citra/Galaxy/eukanot. I think first you should ask yourself what your recipe gains by adding azacca? If you decide to keep it in I may suggest having azacca saved to the very...

The crystal would likely be fine

After my last post I am now positive I got scammed. In all my pots of “magnum” hop seeds I got some sort of mustard/weed(?). I still want to attempt to crossbreed for fun. I understand brewing viability is low to not worth the trouble but I think it could be a fun experiment for an unused part...

I am sure I speak for all of us when I say I love a ketchup and mustard beer as much as the next guy but is there anywhere where I can get REAL hop seeds? I would love a male to try and breed some new hops for fun. I’ve crossed peppers in the past so thought it may be fun with hops.

I have a couple rhizomes up and going. Was attempting to get males to breed with those established hop plants. No pictures of the seeds themselves but this was the link. https://www.ebay.com/itm/165361771150?hash=item268054628e:g:8mQAAOSwf89hTxnw

Bought hop seeds off ebay. They’re supposed to be magnum but I’ve only ever grown from rhizomes before. Do seedlings look bizarre for awhile or did I get scammed? (Ignore the dog fur in the pot. Trying to scare bunnies off)

I apologize. Full ferment in a keg THEN carbonated at 30psi for 48 hours so on and so forth. Would 24 hours at 30 psi be sufficient for next time presuming I wont have that tap you recommended (though if it truly needs no line I am all for getting it)

I keg fermented at around 40 degrees F for 48 hours at 30psi and then conditioned for 3 days at 10psi and got all foam. I turned it down to 5psi for 24 hours and just poured another glass of all foam. I’m running a picnic tap straight from the keg which is 3 or 4 feet of tube. I know that’s not...

These are all great and dusky noted. Does anyone have any firsthand experience with the ones I listed in the original post?

I’m looking for a quasi “house yeast.” I typically brew NEIPAs and don’t enjoy London fog/London III in other styles for some reason. I’d love feedback/thoughts on a few yeasts that could make a great NEIPA but could also branch out for other styles. Here are my options and some thoughts on...

I’m just curious about it. 1318 I enjoy a lot so if 1945 is similar I’d like to try it. It also seems strange to me why they would stop producing it outright? I understand ending the exclusive deal with northern brewer but to totally give it up? Also in a world where NEIPAs are big money makers...

I never had a chance to try wyeast1945 since it was discontinued before I started brewing. I know it’s closely related to 1318 but what exactly is it? Better yet is there a source available out there anywhere?

I’m located in new england

If you use something like fedex doesn’t it allow you to declare what the material is?

Just like the title says, I am interested in getting a hold of a male plant. It would be preferable to know what type of hop it is but since its male I know thats a bit tricky. I would also consider accepting pollen from a male if getting a rhizome is out of the picture

I am in zone 5 and the pots are fairly small since they didn’t really grow until late. They were cuttings so they were originally in water until I saw new growth then put them in potting soil in small planters with some rooting hormone. There is still green on them so I’m a little afraid to snip...

They’re currently in pots

We have had a couple good frosts so far this season and I have two plants that were real late bloomers. No cones produced and only grew a few inches but only started growing during late summer. I assume they are still healthy and (hopefully) will come back next spring. Because they are so young...

My thought is that I’ve had too many oatmeal stouts that don’t taste like oats. Obviously it’s a fairly delicate flavor compared to other stout flavors but still. I was considering soaking a cinnamon stick in the oat milk to try to hit that oatmeal cookie taste. I just don’t know best practices

I tried growing cascade last year from a cutting for it to dry up and die. I composted it and used it to fill a hole to find a hop crawling up my fence this past spring. Assuming it was my zombie cascade finally come to life I potted it in potting soil and it took off great all spring and...
