Cheap Hops
Cheap Hops
I’m really testing the water here to see what feedback I get. I’m thinking of selling hops which are vacuum packed and are in aluminium pouches (like the brupaks hops). I want to offer UK and USA varieties and my prices I would be charging are:-
Uk varieties £2.50 per 100g
USA variety £3.50 per 100g
please note that these will be 2008 crops

Re: Cheap Hops
Seems like a fair price. I'd also be interested to know which american varities you are talking about?
Re: Cheap Hops
I'm interested, may I ask where you are sourcing them from? I dont mean to be rude but I presume they are from a reputable source and handled and packaged sensibly?

Re: Cheap Hops
I'm sourcing these hops from Charles Faram and they are being packed using an industrial vacuum packaging machine into aluminium food grade bags.

Re: Cheap Hops
That would be good idea to include those aswell, I really need a good balance of what everyone uses.
