Strata®’s hypnotic aroma and flavours has broken new ground in the craft beer world, and the full depth of Strata®’s hop character that T90 Strata pellets introduced is now complemented by the Strata® CGX™ concentrated cryogenic lupulin pellet option. CGX™ pellets have roughly twice the concentration of hop resins compared to T90 pellets, resulting in reduced vegetative matter and improved efficiency.
However, because certain desirable hop oil components are removed and others amplified in the CGX™ pellet, the flavour and aroma contributions from Strata® CGX™ differ from that of Strata® T90. When using Strata® CGX™, it’s crucial to use a foundation of Strata® T90 Pellets to maintain the full flavour spectrum. Optimum ratios will vary, but in aggressively hopped beers, Indie Hops currently recommends 15-25% of T90 Pellet replaced by half that amount by weight of CGX™.
