T90 AKOYA (HALLERTAU) HOP PELLETS - 100 G
Akoya is a classic aroma hop and was crossed in the Hopsteiner breeding program from the English variety Zenith and a male Hopsteiner breeding line. The aroma of raw hops can be described as herbal, citrus and tea-like, as well as slightly fruity with mint notes. Due to the good resistance to diseases such as downy mildew and powdery mildew and Verticillium wilt as well as drought stress, the new variety delivered constant alpha values of approx. 9-10% with oil contents of approx. 1.5 - 2.0 ml / 100 g.
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.
