Lupulin Powder
Re: Lupulin Powder
Did I overlook some meaningful data? All I see is unsubstantiated statements some want to believe without much thought. How dim

Sommeliers recommend that you swirl a glass of wine and inhale its bouquet before throwing it in the face of your enemy.

Totally wrong.
NEIPA is not "Hop Soup', to call it such is complete Boll*cks and shows a deep misunderstanding. There is a high proportion of (un)malted oat in the grist. This is the haze (murky) forming component. It's present in the grist to create a smooth, some say, slick, mouthfeel. It could be brewed without the oats, and it would only be slightly hazy, but then it wouldn't be a NEIPA.
So please wind your neck in and check your facts

Re: Lupulin Powder
The haze seems to come from the dry hop during active fermentation. As this exbeeriment showed that a no oats beer remained hazy

Not according to Google. If they aren’t ‘cloudy hop soups’, what are they? Some of them are a lot worse than I imagined. Hop purees

Re: Lupulin Powder
This stuff has some interesting possibilities. Whether those are actually realised in practice, or whether it can be offered to homebrewers at a competitive price and range, remain to be seen IMO. It may include a lot of marketing BS or turn out to have disadvantages which are undiscovered or being played down. But certainly worth keeping an eye on.
It has the potential to split our (sometimes limited) access to hops into yet another form to contend with, or cause whole or pellet hops to become scarcer. So if it takes off I hope it is on genuine merit - not for example through being the latest fad or having convenience over quality.
Entangling discussion of its usefulness with with one style of beer (which some like and others don't) seems both needless and pointless though. It will have to work for many/most styles if it is to go anywhere.

Re: Lupulin Powder
There was interest in isolating lupulin glands for brewing back in the 1960s. It didn't seem to develop beyond a patent. I wonder why? My guess is isolation of lupulin from hops is too inefficient for brewing requirements. I can't see how the process could be 100%, which would probably mean more hops being used. An expensive niche product for hopheads discontent with their hop smoothies?

Re: Lupulin Powder
Pulverising plant material under liquid N2 was common practice long before the 1960s. Where's the data for LupuLN2? Or doesn't that bother you?Sadfield wrote:Technology and it's availability has moved on in 50 years.
Re: Lupulin Powder
No. I'll buy it and try it. If I don't like it I'll stick with stockpile of hops I have. Whatever they price it at, it isn't going to break the bank. Being creative and experimenting is what makes brewing fun, it's a hobbie.

Re: Lupulin Powder
My LHBS sells it by the kilo, Citra, Mosaic and Simcoe. About £120/kg at the moment. I doubt it's going to make much difference to my 'boring' beers. I could get a lot of whole hops for £120
Re: Lupulin Powder
Cool where's that? could easily buy, split and sell on. £12 for 100g is equivalent to 200g of pellet usage so not prohibitively expensive.
