Do you notice a decrease in utilization when using hop socks? (The stretchy kind that look like actual socks.)
Even if there is no decrease in IBUs when using hop socks, would you still expect a decrease in hop flavor or aroma in a heavily late-hopped beer?
Does it matter how full you fill each sock? Is .75 oz too much? Does utilization suffer if you use the socks more than once?
For purposes of this analysis, I'm using Chinook pellets. Thanks in advance for your input.
