Hi all,
I have decided that I would like to make my beer from homegrown hops. I selected 4 varieties: 2 flavor/aroma and 2 bittering. After some further reading, I can't seem to find a test to find the Alpha Acid percent for hops? So, I'm considering just purchasing flavor/aroma varieties and continue bittering with pellets so that I can achieve consistent IBUs. I wanted to see what the forum had to say about this.
Thanks,
LL
