Isomerized Hop Pellets

ISO hop pellets

-         Breeding Properties:

Isomerized hop pellets are basically conventional Type 90 pellets in which the alpha acids have been converted to iso-alpha acids. Isomerized pellets can be added at any stage of boiling while maintaining high utilization. Consequently, late additions of aroma hops optimize utilization of the alpha acids not usually converted with typical hop aroma late kettle additions. Isomerized pellets can be added to the kettle 15 minutes prior to knockout if the goal is to add hop flavor and aroma to the beer (30).
