I have the opportunity to use wet hops for the first time this year and was hoping to get an idea on how much to use per bbl. I know this can be a wide range but it will be a rye pale ale with cascade wet hops. Again having never done this before just trying to get a range to get me in the ball park

The advice my supplier gave me the last time I did a wet hop beer was to aim for 4 times the amount of dried hops you'd use for the recipe. This was simply based on water weight in wet hops vs dried hops.
I used pellets for bittering and a late addition then used about 4 lbs/bbl in the wp/hopback for flavor. I didn't dry hop the beer as I've heard quite a few horror stories about dry hopping with wet hops.
Best of luckManuel
