Hi,
I am talking to a small hop grower about buying hops for my brewery from his farm this fall. He is a small grower and has built some sort of contraption to package the hops. Basically it takes about 5 pounds of hops and compresses them into a hard puck. Once it is in the puck form he then vacuum seals the hops. I have heard that compressing the hops too much is not great. Can anyone confirm that? Should I be concerned about his packaging method?
Thanks,
Mark
