What hops go well with Sabro?

Some good hops to pair with Sabro include Idaho 7, Citra, Mosaic, and Simcoe. These hops have similar flavours and aromas, and they all work well with the tropical notes of Sabro.

Where do Sabro hops come from?

Sabro hops come from the U.S. state of Colorado. The main farm producer is owned and operated by Jason Perrault and his wife, Denise Perrault. The couple founded the farm in 2008, and it has since become one of the largest producers of Sabro hops in the world. Sabro hops are known for their unique flavour and aroma, which is a mix of blueberry, tangerine, and pineapple. They are often used in IPAs and other hoppy beers.

SUBSTITUTES

If this hop is not available, then a good substitute is Ekuanot or Pacific Jade.

T90 HOP PELLETS

T-90 hop pellets are produced from kiln-dried, whole leaf hop cones which have been hammer-milled into a uniform powder and pressed through a pellet die. Leaf hops vary in oil and vegetative content, so pellet compression is fine-tuned to achieve a consistent density for repeatable brewing, batch after batch.

Production processes are designed to protect and preserve hop resins by continually monitoring temperature and cooling the pellet die. Hop pellets retain all of their natural lupulin and cone material, and can be used as a full replacement for whole hops having a longer shelf life, requiring less storage space, and generally being easier to handle.

STORAGE

We weigh all hops only when there is an order for them – none have been sitting of shelves, they are taken out from a bulk vacuum sealed bag in cold storage at the time we complete your order. Our hop pellets are packaged inside UV protected polyethylene bags and vacuum sealed.

Sometimes the vacuum seal can degrade – especially if hop dust settles alongside where the bag is heat sealed. If you receive the hops and it appears that the vacuum is breaking down, the hops will still be perfectly safe to use with no degradation of flavour.

If you do not intend to use then in a few days of receiving, we suggest that you store them in a fridge or freezer. Hop pellets stored near-freezing, preferably between -1°C and 5°C. Under these conditions, T-90 hop pellets will remain stable in closed containers for three (3) years.
