hi just been given a big bag of dried hops from a keen Gardner only problem is they don’t know what type they are? would the forum chance a brew with them or could this end up being poured down the drain???
 
Could you make a small 'tea' drink to assess the taste/aroma/bitterness?
If it were me I'd have the mash on by now. :mrgreen:

Oh, just thought, as they might be bad why don't you post them up to me :grin:

No, really, brew a small batch, take pics, and post results.
 
ok guys took your advice and made a "small tea drink" at the same time i did the same with hallertauer hops (the only other hops i have) now the hallertauer is very strong and the free hops are quite subtle! free hops are full of seeds what do you think :wha:
