Bought a pound of citra and half pound of Equinox frozen pellets yesterday. In the mix of everything I left my hops in the car. They were in the car from noon yesterday to noon today. It's a moderate summer thus far in Ohio.
Should I chalk these up as a loss or am I ok?
 
They're probably fine. It's not optimal, but make sure they're vacuum sealed and throw them back in the freezer and don't sweat it. Hops are shipped all the time and probably face similar conditions.
 
Yeah - the hops you use regularly probably had worse than that on the truck ride from the farm to the LHBS.
 
Were they hermetically sealed in a mayonaisse jar on Funk and Wagenels porch since noon yesterday?

Then they should be fine.
