I need to rapidly age some pellet hops for a plambic I'm preparing soon.
All the recipes use whole hops, but I managed to get a pound grab bag
from Austin homebrew today. I was going in for vintage saaz and left
with an assortment. I read that the pellets can be aged if ground down
and warmed in the oven for about six hours. Does this sound right?
Also, would I get a cheese odor this way?
First time I've ever heard of that. For what purpose would you want to age
the pellets? It's my understanding that the IBUs drop as they age. I've
never brewed a Plambic or researched one, does it have something to do with
the style?
