I guess I meant... will they compact. It's a Pliny clone. Tons of hops! I had them in muslin hop bags but When I added the first hop addition the bag was floating from what I assume was a case of too much pellet hops in the bag. I fished it out and cut it open.

Is this from dry hopping?

No. from the boil. Just pitched the yeast.

This is before fermenting right? They'll all stir up during fermentation and then all the hops and trub will sink when it finishes. It should compact more than that pic. I would hope a bunch more...you are losing a lot of pints there. I haven't put any hops or break in a fermenter in years so I can't give a better guess on how much it will compact. Cold crashing will help compact the yeast and trub layer though.
