Did an IPA yesterday with 130 ibu's.
in a 60 minutes boil, I added 7.75 ounces of pellets in a muslin bag over the boil time. It was one of those longer bags...maybe a 2 foot long one. at the end it was a large lose ball of hops...like the size of a 16" softball. it seems loose in the boil, but when you took the bag out it compacted. I was wondering if I didn't get the ibu's I wanted with so many hops in a sack?
