T90 WAIMEA™ HOP PELLETS - 250 G
Developed by the New Zealand Institute for Plant and Food Research hop breeding program and released in 2012, Waimea’s lineage includes Californian Late Cluster, Saaz and Fuggle. Waimea is a big hop for big beers and can be used across an array of styles in a variety of brew house and dry hopping applications.
Its aroma profile is characterized by citrus, stone fruit, sweet aromatic and tropical notes.
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.
