Tea or boil

[labrewski]

What would generate best flavour boiling hops in lme for 30 min or a tea at start of fermentation

I would say tea at the bottling stage as C02 from fermentation can drive off aroma and flavour

If it's for bitterness then boiling. Teas at the start of fermentation are a waste of time if you're using them for the equivalent of a dry hop. I did a split batch with an early tea, tea at bottling and a dry hop and the early tea was rubbbbish.
