I was in pretty good shape to begin with, but I just picked up 1# each of Amarillo, EKG and Galena for $2/oz. :rockin:
 
Cascade 8oz
Centennial 7oz
Magnum 6oz
EKG 15oz
Hallertau 12oz
Fuggle 15oz
Galena 2oz
= 65oz or 4.06lb

Man, I've got a lot of EKG and Fuggles....
 
Time to do an inventory before the new harvest comes in.
I know I have a decent supply of hops as I stocked up last fall when first reports of the shortage was coming in (Thanks HBT). However I'm not sure what I have left.

I am not worried about running short of hops because the hops I planted last year are producing a great crop this summer. I should have a good supply of Cascades, Centennial and Chinook and a modest supply of Willamette after the harvest.

Just did an inventory:

Hop Name Quantity (oz)
Tettnang 12
Willamette 12
Cascade 16
Northern Brewer 4
Chinook 9
Saaz 7
Hallertauer 5
Spalt Select 2

Total ounces 67
Total lbs 4.19

These are all 5 year old full flower, and stored in the freezer. They still smell fresh and look good. Last week we upped the additions by ~ 50% to make up for any lost IBU's, but I think thats too much. The cooled wort smelled and tasted really hoppy, as did the transfer to secondary. So this week we didn't adjust upwards. We will know in a couple of weeks :eek:
 
just bought a pound each of styrian goldings and northern brewer...that should last a few weeks :D

reorganized my hops and i'm running low on fuggle and EKG. i think the LHBS has some so i'll have to stop by this week.
