T90 BRAMLING CROSS HOP PELLETS - 1 KG
Bramling Cross is a rather rare breed and is mostly available in the UK. First harvested in 1927 at Wye College its lineage is a cross between Golding and a wild Manitoban (Canadian) hop. It is considered well suited to cask conditioned recipes as well as Christmas and fruit beers. When used in large quantities the fruity element in Bramling Cross springs to life. This use exhibits complex fruity notes of lemon, blackcurrant and pear, particularly when used as a late addition. Some brewers have also recorded notes of blackberries and plums.
WHAT ARE HOP PELLETS?
To obtain hop pellets, dried cones are milled and compressed until the typical cylindrical shape is obtained. 90 kg of pellets are obtained from 100 kg of hop cones, hence the name T90. Weight loss is caused by a small reduction in moisture content and plant matter. This solution offers some advantages compared to cones, including greater aroma extraction efficiency, lower wort losses, compactness and greater stability during storage.
