I found an interesting recipe that I want to try but it calls for whole hops and I've got pellets. As long as the percentage is the same, can I convert it weight for weight or is there a conversion ratio I need to know?
 
otoh, utilization using pellets is generally accepted to be 10% higher than whole cones, so if that difference matters, multiply the recipe weights by .9

Cheers!
