On brew day and after is when my questions seem to come up, so here goes. After going thru the recipe for the Blind Pig, I have found I have two questions. One, I have an open 1 oz bag of hops that are going to used in the dry hop next week, how should I store them for the week? I put them in a zip lock back and they are on the counter, but would putting them in the fridge be better? Two, I have leftover Amarillo and Apollo hops that the kit did not use, how would they do as an addition to the dry hop? I am tempted to try it just for the heck of it, but I really should stick with the kit I am guessing. Three, I have a small amount of hops, Amarillo I think, left over from my last brew day about a month ago, they have been in the closet with all my supplies, are they still any good? My thought is to dump all the leftovers, heck, they are only a couple of bucks for the whole ounce, so it cannot be that much of a loss if I dump them. LOL.
Anyway, thanks to all who have responded to all my stupid questions. I appreciate it as I journey down the path of beer making.
