REPLACEMENT RATE RECOMMENDATIONS
1. In Whirlpool: replace T-90 Hop Pellet additions at a rate of 50-to-1 by weight (e.g. 1 kg T-90 becomes 20 g HyperBoost).
2. In Dry Hop: replace T-90 Hop Pellet additions at a rate of 100 - 125 to-1 by weight (e.g. 1 kg T-90 becomes 8 g HyperBoost).
DOSING RECOMMENDATIONS
YCH recommends replacing up to 100% of the Whirlpool, or 25% to 50% of the dry hop addition with HyperBoost and leaving up to 50% of the addition as T-90
Hop Pellets and/or Cryo Hops® Pellets. This dry hopping recommendation is just a guideline to start with. There’s technically no issue with using a higherpercentage of HyperBoost in the dry hop, but many brewers prefer the flavor and mouthfeel that leaf material provides.
While HyperBoost can be used later in fermentation, or in the brite tank, it is not recommended. In these applications, high amounts of terpene-derivedaromas can make it into a beer, which may cause excessive vegetal/herbal/earthy notes. The best use of HyperBoost is during active fermentation - it canbe added as early as during yeast pitch. YCH recommends adding HyperBoost while still at fermentation temperatures, ideally at least two days before crashing. If fermentation has completely ceased at the time of addition, a mixing step should be performed
