I was thinking on an easy way to get I big hop hit in my beer ... Then thought maybe a but of chemistry and extract it somehow .. However I've only just discovered you can buy hop extract .. So my question is gas anyone tried it ...?????
Yeah, I'd have to agree with dancness, if you want a big hop hit, why not use more hops?
If you want more aroma, than you need hop oil's not hop extract. That"s for bittering. I
use hop oils from hop union sometimes on my IIPA with good success. There kinda pricey for the homebrewer though. hope this helps!!! Cheers!!! http://www.hopunion.com/hopproducts.html
Northern has Amarillo hopshot now. I've been using their previous version of Hopshot for bittering, and it works great. A bit too spicy for late additions, but I plan to make an all-Amarillo hopshot beer this weekend with about 10ml or so of the Hopshot -- two full tubes. One tube for bittering, then one for late additions.

I also routinely use 1-2ml of hopshot for first-wort hops in nearly every beer I do. Hopshot is pretty cheap, too. Not sure if this is what you meant, but it works great.
How did this work out?
