Take some hop flowers (we used Galaxy)
Add them to a coffee plunger
Add some beer (we used a couple of Stellas as they're pretty plain)
And out comes extra hop infused beer. We decided that next time we'd add more hops and leave for a longer time. It definitely added something to the mouthfeel and flavour of the beer, a bit of aroma. Definitely worth trying another time with some more hops.
Next time, I suggest we use fresh hop flowers (maybe our own...!), and crush them in a mortar and pestle before adding to the plunger.
ReplyDeleteYes! I'd love to do it with fresh hops. Always. Now we have a year to wait...
