i just got a UPS shipment from a fairly large brew supplier who shall remain nameless until they have a chance to address this issue.
the box was handed to me by the UPS driver. I opened it up and ten ounces of hops were in a paper bag. they were in sealed vacuum bags, but they were all in a paper bag in the top of the box with no insulation. the box was about 100 degrees hot.
i replied to the vendor about it. they thanked me for my suggestion and wished me a nice day.
i won't really know how well they survived until i open them up and use them.
meanwhile, does anyone know how likely it is that they are okay - or not?
i don't know how long or how hot they were. the trip was from indiana to florida and the ambient temp today is about 90 in the shade, apparently much hotter in a brown truck!
