These three varieties with very high alpha properties were all produced at the same time and sold to different grower groups. Since then it has been proven that Columbus and Tomahawk are the same variety (by gas chromatograph) and Zeus is so similar that it is indistinguishable from the other two in the finished product.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 13px;\"\u003eWe weigh all hops only when there is an order for them – none have been sitting of shelves, they are taken out from a bulk vacuum sealed bag in cold storage at the time we complete your order. Our hop pellets are packaged inside UV protected polyethylene bags and vacuum sealed.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr style=\"font-size: 13px;\"\u003e\u003cbr style=\"font-size: 13px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 13px;\"\u003eSometimes the vacuum seal can degrade – especially if hop dust settles alongside where the bag is heat sealed. If you receive the hops and it appears that the vacuum is breaking down, the hops will still be perfectly safe to use with no degradation of flavour.\u0026amp;nbsp;If you do not intend to use then in a few days of receiving, we suggest that you store them in a fridge or freezer. Hop pellets stored near-freezing, preferably between -1°C and 5°C. Under these conditions, T-90 hop pellets will remain stable in closed containers for three (3) years.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Brew2Bottle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55462903349625,"sku":"B2B-8618","price":3.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0058\/7756\/3507\/files\/qvww30xxx5j.jpg?v=1752503850","url":"https:\/\/brew2bottle.co.uk\/products\/brew2bottle-columbus-usa-100g-t-90-hop-pellets-2023","provider":"Brew2Bottle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
