HOW TO BREW WITH CRYO HOPS®
KETTLE: Late additions only; early kettle additions should be avoided to prevent boiling out the intense aroma characteristics. POST-BOIL/WHIRLPOOL: Whirlpool additions are an excellent way to increase aroma and reduce trub load from large, late additions. FERMENTATION: Using Cryo Hops® pellets in the fermenter is an excellent way to increase aroma while reducing trub loss. DRY HOPPING: An excellent way to harness the massive aroma and flavor characteristics of Cryo Hops while reducing trub loss. Cryo Hops will settle out during normal conditioning and can be fined, filtered, or centrifuged as normal.
