Re: Alpha acid analysis

It’s looking around end of October so don’t worry about timing . You will get a result back for each sample you send . You can send as many samples as you like , cost is looking at £10 per sample ( if we get 50 samples ) .

Just let me know how many samples and I will be in touch .

Alpha acid analysis

Would anyone be interested in getting there homegrown hops analysed for alpha acids ? I managed to get a lab to carry out the analysis for a reasonable cost approx £10. We would need roughly 50 samples which are dried and vacuums packed to make it cost effective. Let me know if you are Interested .
