Hop Pellets
Hop pellets are used in beers all around the world. They give each beer a unique flavour from a hops bitterness and aroma.
T90 Hop Pellets:
(standard pellets) T90 pellets are a kettle-added hop product providing bitterness and
hop aroma.
They have virtually the
same composition as leaf hops and provide a slightly improved utilization, more
homogeneity, better storage stability and reduced transport/ storage costs compared to raw hops
T45 Hop Pellets:
T45 pellets are a kettle-added
hop product providing bitterness and
hop aroma.
In Type 45 Pellets the hop bitter
acids and essential oils are
concentrated by the removal of some
of the non-essential plant material during processing.
Type 45 Pellets provide improved
utilization, more homogeneity, better
storage stability and significantly
reduced transport/storage costs compared to raw hops
Isomerised Hop Pellets:
ISO Pellets offer major improvements in utilization due to the
pre-isomerization of a-acids during processing. They demonstrate excellent storage characteristics. Iso-Pellets can replace existing conventional, alpha and aroma
hop products without any changes in the beer quality. They provide opportunities for considerable savings in
hop costs.
