i have a few "brewer's best" box kits that have been on the shelf for a few months. i didn't know about hops freshness until later. now i am replacing the hops with fresh ones. the hops are all still sealed in their vacuum packs and in the refrigerator now. can they still be used for bittering? i am thinking that the staleness will all be boiled away. or should i just toss them in the compost? is there any other use for them?
