hops

Just for "fun" I am trying to see what I can make with leftover / donated ingredients I have. Right now I have: 1.5 lb of Bavarian Wheat DME 1 oz German Magnum 1 oz German Perle 1 oz UK Fuggle I also have US-05 and US-04 dry yeast around. So what can I make?!

Has anyone ever used lupulin pellets? How can I substitute them in my recepie? Can I assume 1oz of hop pellets is equivalent to .5oz of lupulin pellets?

We just moved into a new house - not far from our old place in Upstate NY. I had some great success growing hops at my old place, and want to take the rhizomes with me. I dug up the root balls and now I'm wondering what to do until spring. Should i just get them in the ground, despite the fact...

Hello all. Have a batch that is a touch on the sweet side. (American wheat style). I don't think i boiled enough bittering hops to balance it. I would like to save this batch if possible. My goal was for a hoppy wheat- so it could stand some more aroma hop flavor too. Is it possible to add...

Hello everyone, Allow me to share some thoughts and speculations for you to consider and hopefully add to my hypothesis. I've been mainly brewing New England style IPA's this year and have been testing out all kinds of factors. I've done both dry hopping during active fermentation and after...

I've been brewing for a while now, but something struck me that I never gave a whole lot of thought to before. A lot of recipe planners and recipes I use quote a specific AA unit for the hops (in addition to quantities). I've usually just thrown in the quantity called for and figured it was...

http://www.wbur.org/artery/2018/09/25/massachusetts-farmers-hops-plant-local-craft-beer I might have to pick up some hops from them for a future IPA. I'd also be curious what the "feral variety likely descended from the Pilgrims’ crops" would be like.

Had a lot of fun building a prototype hop oast/dryer out of pallets and a few other low cost materials and wanted to share the build! Checkout the pdf. Feedback and questions are welcome! Enjoy!

Hi! I am going to brew my first NEIPA soon and I have just bought me a keg. General, I have had a lot of oxidation problems when bottling my IPAs so I am hoping the keg will help me in this situation. One question I have is if you guys have seen some problem with oxidation with different dry...

Hi all, I missread the recipe for the neipa that am making and I dry hopped at day 3 instead of only for 3 days. I'm now on day for and was planning to dry hop again on Friday. My question is, when I dry hop the new bag should I fish out the old one? I'm using citra, Galaxy and mosaic hops...

I'm new to this so my plan is to brew five 1-gallon batches to see what works well and what doesn't. The hops I grew myself, they are freshly harvested a few days ago and fully dehydrated. The first batch I started this weekend was based off a kit so I just used their malt mix, grains and yeast...

I've been intrigued about hop combos and their biotransformations ever since I heard Stan Hieronymus speak about them. Using nugget and chinook in the whirl pool and/or dry hop produce something much fruitier/tropical than either on their own. I've tried it and it seems to be true. Has anyone...

I'm a novice at this but what I'd like to do is try multiple small batches (i have a small kit so that limits me anyway) so I can experiment and see what works and what doesn't. I grow my own hops and this is year 2 (last year I gave em away to a friend, i had no time to try them sadly) and I...

Who grows hops for IPA's? What have you found to be the best homegrown IPA hops? Centennial isn't as vigorous as the other C hops, but has been a good producer. It's the earliest for me (I'm picking it now). I've never sprayed in 10ish years of growing and never had disease issues, but hear...

I've been experimenting with using kits to make tasty and fun ciders with consistent results (as the concentrates are rather consistent in flavour). I've mainly been using Mangrove Jacks Craft Series Apple Cider and Mangrove Jacks Craft Series Pear Cider. As far as I can see, these can be bought...

So I had an idea for this "Girl Scout Cookie" type of recipe and came up with this. Not sure if it has too much stuff in it, perhaps it might do well without the Cinnamon. This is BIAB, by the way. Boil: 7 Gal Batch: 5 Gal Brewing Time: 60min Temp: 100 (when malts go in) 150 (until water boils...

Boil: 7.5gal Batch: 5gal Malts: Pale Ale (12lbs) Crystal 40L (2lbs) Hops: Galaxy 0.5oz @60 Azacca 0.5oz @15 Galaxy 1oz @0 Azacca 2oz @Dry hop (1 week before bottling) Other additions: Mango (heat it up on the stove, and let it cool on the freezer) (1 week before bottling) Yeast: US-05...

This will be my 10th batch and I'm trying to brew up a really tasty hop bursted APA. I also took my first stab at creating a recipe based on all of the stuff I've learned over the last 3 or 4 months. I'm wondering if you guys think Simcoe would work as a good bittering hop in this recipe? If you...

I decided to try and have an IPA recipe all my own recently and so this summer I thought I would spend it perfecting one. I wanted to post the hops combos I have used so far maybe someone will have some pointers or ideas and maybe this info can help someone else trying to get a better grasp on...

I'm a 5-6 gallon BIAB fiend. I was just gifted 4 oz of some Denali hops from a buddy and would love to know what you guys think I should pair them with.
