BITTERING TOOLS
FOR WELL-ROUNDED BEERS

Prepared from hops or hop pellets using pressurized carbon dioxide, Hop Extract contains the alpha-acids and essential oils of hops and provides added efficiency and flexibility in the brew house. It’s exceptionally stable when properly stored, and retains the aroma and the bittering potential of the hops from which it is made.

Intended to improve brewer's control over bitterness, Isohop^® Hop Extract naturally acts as an antimicrobial agent when added to beer. Standardized to 30% iso-alpha-acids, it’s produced from hop extraction and designed to replace kettle bittering hop and improve hop utilization.

A flowable bittering hop product derived from pure hops, FLEX^® is easy to use, easy to pour, and eliminates a significant amount of the vegetative material in hops—reducing wort loss and improving clean up. FLEX® disperses more readily than whole hops or pellets and provides a 10–20% (relative) increase in alpha-acids utilization as compared to standard T90 hop pellets.

Introducing Kettle Redi^®, an efficient, easy-to-use, all-natural hop product that delivers light-stable bitterness and great kettle hop flavor, all while improving hop utilization. Kettle Redi^® is the perfect hot-side addition for commercial beers packaged in clear and green bottles.

Provides protection from light-struck flavor. It has a pleasant smooth bitterness and, when added to wort or beer, Redihop® will act as an antimicrobial agent. Produced from hop extract, Redihop^® is an aqueous solution of pure rho-iso-α-acid. Smooth, soft bitterness, approximately 60% as bitter as normal iso.

Enhances beer foam when used post-fermentation as a replacement for a portion of the normal bittering. In the absence of normal alpha-acids and iso-alpha-acids, it also provides complete protection from light-struck flavor. Provides a more concentrated/powerful bitterness - approximately 30% more bitter than normal iso.

Water soluble solution standardized to 20% blend of hexa-hydroiso- alpha & tetra-hydro-iso-alpha acids. Improves foam stand and cling and is ideal for light-stable hopping in beers packaged in green or clear glass. It imparts a clean, smooth bitterness and has desirable antimicrobial properties.

Improves foam stand and cling. It’s ideal for light-stable hopping in beers packaged in green or clear glass and it imparts a clean, smooth bitterness that is especially effective in low BU beers. Water soluble solution standardized to 10% blend of hexa-hydroiso- alpha & tetra-hydro-iso-alpha acids.

A pre-isomerized hop extract containing free iso-alpha-acids along with soft resins and hop oils, IKE can be used as a complete or partial replacement of normal kettle hop extract. It’s non-variety specific, but is generally 40-60% iso-alpha-acid with an end utilization rate of approximately 92%.
