Subbing pellet hops for dried flowers, how much?

[breakbeer]

Fellow hop heads

I've brewed this beer (Black IPA) quite a few times now & it's always been a cracker of a beer. My mate wants me to brew it for his wedding in March so I'm brewing it today.

I've just realised that I only have a small amount of Nelson pellets left but I have a shipload of Nelson flowers

Here's the hop schedule:

41g Nelson @ 60
31g Nelson @ 10
39g Nelson @ 5
59g Nelson Dry

The above schedule has always been done with pellets, so how many grams of dried flowers should I use instead?

Flowers are marked as 2013 crop with 12%AA, Pellets I was using were marked 2013 crop with 11.5%AA

Any help would be appreciated, just about to start heating strike so I've got a couple of hours before I need to start weighing my hops

add 10% by weight, adjust further for AA% if required.

Thanks Yob,

just so I'm clear, you mean add 10% more flowers than I would pellets?

Just plug the new numbers into whatever brew software you use and it does the calc for you.

If you don’t have brew software, you can download BrewMate free or a trial of Beersmith.

Beersmith 2 is on my other laptop, which swmbo has borrowed

Yeah mate, pellets are typically T90 where flowers are T100, hence the 10%

T45 pellets can be had, but arent common here for some reason.

I would leave the hop amounts the same as the flowers have a higher AA which probably balances out an increase in overall weight.??
