I want to order 1lb of bulk hops. I'm thinking something higher AAs for bittering. I can get 1lb of Magnum from Hops Direct. What variety would you buy in bulk for bittering?

I bet it'll be cheaper than that, since hopsdirect is known for shipping you quite a bit more than you ordered, sometimes almost a full pound over.Soulive21 said:I just pulled the trigger on the pound of Magnum. It works out to $1.68 per ounce with shipping

I thought about buying a couple more pounds and having my wife use them to stuff some pillows...
the_bird said:Yeah. Pound of Cascade was 1lb, 15 ounces. Pound of Fuggles was 1lb, 12 ounces. Still was close to $50 shipped, but not bad when considering how many hops I got.
Hell, I got too many hops, they barely fit in the freezer!
