T90 AKOYA HOP PELLETS - 100 G
Akoya is a classic aroma hop that was crossed in the Hopsteiner breeding line with the Zenith English variety and a male Hopsteiner variety. The aroma of raw hops can be described as herbal, citrus and tea-like, as well as slightly fruity with mint notes. Thanks to the good resistance to diseases such as late blight and Verticillium as well as drought stress, the new variety produced constant alpha values of around 10-11% with an oil content of around 1.5 - 2.0 ml / 100 g. It is considered the heir of the Perle, due to its very similar aromatic characteristics and superior agronomic performance.
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.
