Awhile ago I posted asking how to know when hops were ready to pick. No one seemed to know the answer but found this YouTube video that answers those questions. Thought I'd share it here for anyone brewing with cultivated or wild hops.
We harvested enough hop cones to fill an empty case of beer box. Thought we had enough hops for 5 or 6 batches. Turns out after drying we netted 5 ounces of hops, enough for one batch. My advice is if you are harvesting wild hops, pick all you can hold of.
