Hey -- any interest in stocking some kind of isomerised hop extract? It would be pretty handy for brewers for post-ferment bitterness modification - if you didn't get the FG you were after, you can add bitterness in the keg. Seems like the kind of thing that is only economical in 20 litre drums but the home brewer needs 50mL.

I'm assuming those hop extracts you currently stock are non-isomerised for flavour/aroma addition.

Im looking into it yes and it seems likely I'll add it, the product is also cold soluble so is a perfect solution to that issue.

And also.. Galaxy being split and listed right now (Pellet)

 

[BottloBill]

Any word on more Citra?

2016 Galaxy already?

 

[Yob]

No, 15, it will be months till there is 16 galaxy

 

[DJ_L3ThAL]

US or AUS?

 

[Yob]

2016 is world wide man..

 

[DJ_L3ThAL]

What, like Pitbull?

Or is this simply that we now receive Aus Galaxy but just call it, Galaxy? Surely there'd be a slight difference between the growing regions?

Ive been given this as an aid to calculate the bitterness added, still getting my head round the products and asking questions.

Galaxy is only grown and produced in Australia. I believe it is trademarked. Same as you'll only find Citra, Simcoe and Mosaic coming out of the one camp in the US.

Right, I was watching a small package I sent up to NSW recently and while I know there has been a bit of ponding up there, the package took a week to arrive.

This means that no matter where I send them, I cant guarantee to get it to you by the Friday (as was usually the case previously) and the product is sitting god knows where over a weekend. Unacceptable.

Therefore, I will be deleting the option from my postage, it was really only used for yeast which makes it even more unacceptable in the long run.

So, HDA is now fully and only express post.

Cheers

So was that package stamped priority or just standard under their new system?

 

[Yob]

was a registered post envelope, so I assume just the new system at play

 

[HopAssault]

Hey Yob, any updates on the Simcoe and Mosaic? I'm looking to get 250 of each, if thats not possible I guess I'll have to just get 500 bags :icon_drool2:

Also, do you have any flowers or any coming in the near future?

Cheers!

 

[Yob]

Bit late in the season for flowers, I 'might' still have a pack in the freezer, will look.

NZ Cascade, simcoe, Mosiac pellets and motueka and Nelson hop shots to be split from tonight to Saturday night

 

[HopAssault]

Yeah that's what I was thinking. Worth an ask!

Beauty. I'll keep an eye on here/the website.
Thanks mate.

there is one 2015 AU Cascade in flowers if you want it?

 

[HopAssault]

That'd be great! I'll shoot you a Pm.

Ordered Saturday and arrived today (Tuesday). Hopdealz great.
Auspost jammed $150 of hops in an express parcel half into the letterbox, in the sun, on a 38c day without ringing the $&@$ doorbell!
Normal big box Aussie post contractor is great. The motor bike brigade are not...

 

[indica86]

The motor bike brigade are not...

You expect the motorbike postie to waste his time and get off the bike and ring your bell?
Did you consider checking the post at the usual time they ride past?

Thanks for your valuable contribution.
The normal time has a 6 hour window.

[indica86]

Thanks for your valuable contribution.\

Not a problem. My local postie - on the bike - has to smash out the whole round in a very fast time.
I am certain that no where in his job description is mentioned door bell ringing for hops.

Window of six hours for hops that have travelled from who knows where is not going to make a real lot of difference, I have no issues with how my $100+ of hops is left sitting.

And again, you expect a motorbike postie to get off his bike and ring your bell?

Some sneaky listing's just up, very limited citra etc, they were reserve bags not claimed.

First in best dressed

In Other News....

Just noticed while splitting there has been a bit of a supply error and Ive received 2014 US Cascade by mistake..

You are the big winner here, Ive reduced it to clear at $25 a half kilo...

Its plenty stinky and I'd have no hesitation in using it at all.. but as a sweetner.. and just for kicks,

first 5 people to bags one gets a free hop shot of their choosing... (just let me know what sort you want)

cant get sweeter than that right?

Can I put my hand up for one of those deals and put my order through later today?
Need to work out a couple of other hops to add to the order at the same time.

Sure can, in fact, all sales today regardless of variety will get a free hop shot.

If I'm not told what sort, I'll just randomly select one and chuck it in

 

[Kingy]

Looks like it's time to order some hops
