Hop Oils.

Trying 2ml of Nelson per 19L keg today in a generic APA.

The aroma coming out is lovely. Anybody else use it?

I've tried Citra and Cascade oils in the past but was totally underwhelmed - get a far better result dry hopping for 3 days at 8C. Having said that, it was a while ago and my brewing has improved considerably (even though I say so myself :wink: ) since then to let the hops shine through.

Hi, I did dry hop as well but I found this in the brewing draw all forgotten about so I thought I’d try it as a booster. I didn’t really think about using it as a complete substitute but will also try that in the future.

It’s a shame it is doesn’t work as it would speed up the grain to glass time a little and save some cash too.
