Happiness is five pounds of hops in the freezer, three and a half pounds form this, my third, years crop. The stash consists of Centennial, Nugget, Magnum and Willamette. Now comes the fun parts of converting them all into beer, more than 250 gallons by my calculations!
Next year I need to build a dryer, the wife won't put up with window screens full of hops spread all over the house again next year. I also have some ideas about how to quickly strip the hops from the vines. Picking that many by hand was a real pain.
How about the rest of you guys, what was your haul this year?
