My hop threshold rises with every brew.
James Morton’s book Brew has recipes with 500g if hops in them but I’m too skint to even try one

500g....you could make 100 pints of Carling with that much...
I’m a 100% pellet convert
I used to use leaf but found the taste and aroma from the pellets stood out more, the sludge is a bit of a pain I guess but hey ho

Yeah ideally you want as much ***** out of your beer before it gets bottled. So all that remains is a tiny film of dead yeast.ahh.. I don't let my beer play outside until it's bottled.
Before I started begging and force carbing, I had the process dialled in well enough so that all the remaining sediment could be caught in the neck of the bottle. i.e. there was virtually no waste when pouring into a glass.
Begging is no fun
This new laptop does auto-correct and I need to work out how to turn it off.
I'll not edit the original post because it's hilarious.

I tied the hop bag to a sterilised tea cup, which seemed to work as an anchor - the bag still floats up, but it is a bit like an iceberg.
Just throw them in loose, go on, you know you want to

Marbles are perfect. Easy to clean and sterilize.
This is what I use. Cheap also :)

Feeling of freedom throwing them in and I honestly believe a lot more hop profile

You miss-spelled 'gallons'.

Nor do I. I used to when I was bottling though. Straight from the primary and into a corny, no cold crashing. Never had an issue with clarity or floaty bits (except for the first and last pour, obviously).
I rather expect that 500g of hops might make closer to 1,000 than 100 pints of whatever liquid product suggested. 100 pints is only 2.5 batches and 200g of hops in a 40 pint batch is the sort of extravagance James Morton suggests.
