I have two monster hop plants in full flower at present.
I have just started to home brew using extract.
Any ideas how I find out if my hops are suitable for brewing and if so can I use them in the first stage or second stage.
I want to had them direct to the wort rather than boiling down etc.
Do I need to dry them first?
