Hi guys,
All the best in New Year.
Wanted to ask if anyone used products from HopZoil brand and can share their experience.
I decided to try how this product would compare to a classic dry hopping and purchased few samples.
Last week I bottled 16l of Centennial APA and added 0.5 ml of Centennial HopZoil (emulsified) to priming sugar solution.
I opened a bottle today. Poured it to a glass and I saw the foam disappearing within 15 seconds after the pour. To absolute 0.
This never happened to me before and I see it now after using HopZoil.
It is oily stuff so I guess it could affect foam stability.

Thanks for your advise.

It looks like it did affect it.
I will use some CaraFoam malt my next brew and see if this will improve the foam quality and post an update.
Thanks.
