hey,
i got given a packet of hops (had been previously opened) and the pellets are soft.
i am used to hop pellets that are hard but these ones you can squash with your fingers and to my feel, do seem a tad damp (not just cold). i fear they have been exposed to moisture.
can i still use em? i know i wouldnt be expecting maximum freshness but i did get 200g so was thinking i could just use more in a single hop IPA i was planning but i dont want to waste my time or ruin my beer.
thoughts????
cheers
