This hop shortage thing got me interested in growing my own hops, and now I just want to do it because it sounds fun. But I've always used pellet hops for several reasons: they stay fresh longer, they are easy to weigh out, and most of all...they don't soak up wort. It seems to me that if I were to make an IPA, I lose half my beer to the hops. So I was thinking I might be able to grind up my hops somehow to pelletize them and get around that problem. How would I go about doing this? Is it worth it? Maybe there is another solution to wort-soaking....
