T90 AZACCA® HOP PELLETS - 250 G
Named after the Haitian god of agriculture, Azacca® is one of a new brood of dwarf bittering hops. Descended directly from Toyomidori, Azacca’s greater parentage also includes Summit™ and Northern Brewer. It is considered by many as being well suited to the IPA style. Even with its high alpha acids, Azacca® still works well as a dual-use hop, giving off a pleasant mix of tropical fruits kissed with citrus. On the palate this hop is particularly spicy, with mango, pineapple and some pine-like and tangerine-esque qualities. Despite being a US hop, it has been likened in nature to some New Zealand-bred varieties.
WHAT ARE HOP PELLETS?
To obtain hop pellets, dried cones are milled and compressed until the typical cylindrical shape is obtained. 90 kg of pellets are obtained from 100 kg of hop cones, hence the name T90. Weight loss is caused by a small reduction in moisture content and plant matter. This solution offers some advantages compared to cones, including greater aroma extraction efficiency, lower wort losses, compactness and greater stability during storage.
