Hop swap?

[Cononthebarber]

Hey all, I have some pellet hops which I can't use as they block up my hop strainer...they aren't really much use for dry-hopping so does anyone want to swap? I would prefer some leaf hops in exchange but all other offers will be considered.

Thanks in advance,

C

Hops:

Saaz Pellets - 100g unopened sealed vacuum packet
Hallertau Hersbrucker (pellets) - opened but frozen packet - approx 60g
Styrian Goldings (pellets) - opened but frozen packet - approx 180g - NOW GONE

I thought I would try and rekindle this thread, noone has shown an interest as yet, but as TST 2014 nears there may be more interest and I can bring the hops along to anyone who is interested in a swap?

I use the SS braid stuff which works really well with leaf hops but it just can't handle pellets unfortunately. Tried it twice now and had a real hassle with it getting blocked and having to syphon the wort off through a sieve which is not ideal :lol:

I like the look of your strainer looks like a neat job :thumb:

If you still have the Styrian if interested could swap with some marynka if interested ?

Hi I've actually got a fair bit of Williamette already so probably not, thanks for looking though :)
