It was used in brewing trials conducted by the Institute of Brewing in 1959 but it was considered to be a poor substitute for the control variety, Fuggle, due to its “strong, coarse, American aroma”.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eIt has clear “New World” characteristics producing a complex flavour with predominantly fruity notes, especially apricot, citrus and spice.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eA late-maturing conventional variety on tall wirework which produces distinctly long cones.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eGood tolerance of wilt disease, susceptible to powdery mildew and aphids but with appropriate control cones usually retain their green appearance late into September. It is particularly susceptible to downy mildew in the spring.\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":55462907740537,"sku":"B2B-8622","price":3.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0058\/7756\/3507\/files\/515xshzp4on.jpg?v=1752504060","url":"https:\/\/brew2bottle.co.uk\/products\/brew2bottle-ernest-uk-100g-t-90-hop-pellets-2024","provider":"Brew2Bottle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
