Review: Prepare to have your entire mouth pucker . . . in a GOOD way. Good for the mood. - I put about 3/4" of pellets into a tea infuser and dunk it into quart jar full of boiling water and cover it. The next morning I pour off about 1/2 cup and add that much more boiling water through the infuser. I use the resulting tea to spike my IPA beer as well as my drinking water. Another portion goes into the kombucha batch. One pound of pellets makes sufficient concentrated tea to go a long, long, far way. Break it down into quarters and keep away from oxygen.
Review: Great product!! - Love these Hops, cheaper from the company!
