I just bought 5kg of Zeus hops. Don't look at me like that, it was on sale!

I'm going to brew some over the top hop bursted, dry hopped SMASH IIPAs with that, obviously. That'll get me through the first one or two kilos.

But how about the rest? Are there any hopping techniques that are underused because they're wasteful? Use only hop tea until I hit 80 IBUs? Hop espresso? Hop vodka for maximum oil extraction at sub-zero temperatures?
 
Whirlpool at lower temperatures.

But a recipe can easily use 15 oz hops, definitely more for a DIPA or Imperial Black IPA.
