T-90 Hop Pellets (T-90)

T-90 hop pellets are produced from kiln-dried, whole leaf hop cones which have been hammer-milled into a uniform powder and pressed through a pellet die. Leaf hops vary in oil and vegetative content, so pellet compression is fine-tuned to achieve a consistent density for repeatable brewing, batch after batch. Production processes are designed to protect and preserve hop resins by continually monitoring temperature and cooling the pellet die. Hop pellets retain all of their natural lupulin and cone material, and can be used as a full replacement for whole hops having a longer shelf life, requiring less storage space, and generally being easier to handle. Pellet hops are offered to brewers in 11lb (5kg) and 44lb (20kg), light-resistant packaging which has been nitrogen flushed to ensure freshness for up to three years from production date in cold storage conditions. T-90 hop pellets can be made from any hop variety. Detailed technical data sheets for these hop varieties are available at www.yakimachief.com
