Hop Pellets

Beer making Hop Pellets are whole hops that have been ground and pressed into a mold.  Resins seal the outside of hop pellets when they are pressed, leaving the interior fresh.  We prefer to use hop pellets to ensure the freshness of our products.  Store hops in your refrigerator or freezer for longest life.

We require an Alpha Acid (bitterness) analysis from our suppliers, and we print the Alpha on the pack of hops.
