As a chef. I usually "toast" many herbs and seeds. Not to caramalize the outside, but to activate the essential oils within.
In transferring my latest IPA to secondary, and intending to rack it onto 2 oz of Glacier for dry hopping, I had an urge......
I boiled the 2 oz of hops in 10 oz of water, just to heat it through, not to sanitize.
It just seemed right.
I placed the 10 oz or so of hop soup into my secondary and racked on.
I will report the results....
11 lbs pale 2 row
1 lb crystal 40L
1 lb caramunich
4 oz roasted
3 oz black malt (de-bittered)
1 oz Glacier 60 min
1 oz chinookm 59 min
1 oz glacier 30 min
2 oz dry tea hopped......
