It also might apply more to whole hops than pellets. The mechanical agitation of the boil helps to release hop character in hop cones, so a small amount might be necessary. But perhaps if you whirlpool your wort, this might not matter.Bearcat Brewmeister said:That is very interesting. I would have expected the aroma graph to start higher even at time zero because dry hopping or throwing hops in at shut off adds aroma. I guess this assumes there is no additional contact time other than the boiling.
