Consider using a fairly neutral (and less expensive) bittering hop (galena is excellent) when you're not going to be getting any of the flavour and/or aroma properties from the hops. Save the expensive stuff for flavouring and aroma where it really counts.
Good idea. I just tossed an ounce of EKG in my stout, but if Galena will bitter just as well, that's what I might try next time.bradsul said:I prefer EKG myself.

Has some aromatics to it, but in a 60 minute boil you wont' get any of them in the final product. I've only used them for bittering.BrooZer said:Is warrior a nuetral flavor?
