Hops Pellets & Flowers

Hops do three jobs, and when you add them decides which one you get. Early in the boil they give bitterness. Late additions give flavour. Dry hopping in the fermenter gives aroma and no bitterness at all. Same pellet, very different beer.

What we stock sorts roughly by where it comes from. The Australians are Galaxy and Vic Secret. From New Zealand, Motueka and Nelson Sauvin. The American ones do the heavy lifting in pale ales and IPAs, so that is Citra, Mosaic, Amarillo, El Dorado, Cascade and Lemon Drop. For English and European styles there is Fuggles, East Kent Goldings imported from the UK, and Saaz for pilsners. Morgans finishing hops in Citra come in a smaller pack if you only want a late addition and do not want to open a bigger bag.

Something worth doing. Keep hops cold and sealed. Oxygen and warmth strip aroma faster than most people expect, so once a bag is open, push the air out, reseal it and put it in the freezer. If a bag smells like cheese or hay rather than fruit and pine, it has been sitting somewhere warm for too long.

Building a recipe? The grain bill builder adds hops to your schedule in grams, estimates the IBU and works out the cheapest mix of pack sizes to cover it.

Ask us at Laverton North or Epping if you are not sure what to substitute for what. More in brewing ingredients, brewing yeast and malt and grains.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between hop pellets and hop flowers?

Pellets are hop cones that have been milled and pressed. They store well, take up less room and are easy to weigh out. Flowers are the whole dried cones, less processed, and some brewers prefer them for dry hopping. Both do the same job in the boil or fermenter. Most of our current range is pellets, including Morgan's Finishing Hops.

How should I store hops?

Keep hops sealed and cold, ideally in the freezer, away from air and light. Hops slowly lose bitterness and aroma once opened, so reseal the pack and use it within a sensible time.

When should I add hops for bitterness or aroma?

Hops added early in the boil give bitterness. Late additions and dry hopping in the fermenter give aroma and flavour. The alpha acid percentage on each pack tells you how much bitterness it will add.

What are finishing hops?

Finishing hops, such as the Morgan's Finishing Hops range, are pre-measured hop additions for adding aroma to a kit beer without a boil. Follow the directions on the pack for when and how to add them.
