An experiment after listening to a podcast on cooking with brewing ingredients on the
homebrewed chef I thought I would give this a go. They use 1oz of pellet hops in a pint jar. I went with 40g in 500ml as it is what I had to hand and pellet hops give a better rate of extraction (something like 15% better) when boiling so it might be the case for this too. Maybe not, but how wrong can I go adding more hops?
40g of Saaz
Kilner jar and vodka
24 hours later, something is coming out into the vodka
remember to keep it out of the light, a jar of skunk vodka is not what we're after
If it works out it might be fun to cook with and potentially I could use it to add a bit of hop zing to beers if needed.
