Hop substitutions??

[HoppyDaze]

So, I want to do a recipe that calls for cascade and centennial hops. I was hoping that what I have in my freezer can substitute for these varieties.

What I have is Sterling, Hallerteau, Willamette and Nothern Brewer

thanks!

I was thinking substitute willamette for cascade and northern brewer for centennial?

LOL...I wasnt even close. I guess I will have to buy yet more hops that I will end up having to throw out; oh well

Don't throw them out! Put your extra hops in the freezer, they will keep for a long time. Hop substitution deals with using similar alpha acid percentages as well as flavor/aroma so if you can find something close to the original AA you should be ok. Don't be afraid to change up the recipe a bit, especially if you intend to throw out your extra hops!!

Those are some of my favorite hops, but none of them are the "citrusy american" variety like cascade or centennial.

Why on earth would you throw them away?

Any chance someone else has a hop substitution chart? I cant get fermantor's chart to load. Im looking to substitute .5oz of fuggles in a mild ale. The recipe calls for 2oz of fuggles and i have 1.5oz in the freezer. Any ideas,

Willamette is a great substitution for Fuggles.

Brew365 lists these as reasonable substitutions:
Willamette, Styrian Golding, Tettnanger, Newport
