hi, im fairly new to homebrewing and am trying to learn a little more before i try my hand at more complicated recipies. when i see these two ingredients; 1.2 AAU hallertauer hop pellets(60 min.) (0.3 oz/8.5 g of 4% alpha acid) the next one is; 1 AAU hallertauer hop pellets(30 min.) (0.25 oz/7g of 4% alpha acid) i know that it is telling me how much and for how long but im not clear on exactly what i would get. how do these two differ and how do i order them. ive looked at hops charts and found hallertauer varieties but alpha acid is given in a range of % and its not clear to me what i would need. im looking for more of a general explanation to learn, rather than just where and what to get for this example.
any help would be much appreciated. thanks wiggy
