Comparing Whole Cone Hops and Pellet Hops for Dry Hopping Efficiency

This chapter delves into a brewer's experiment comparing whole cone hops and pellet hops in a Sierra Nevada clone, revealing that most tasters couldn't distinguish between the two. It discusses blending both types for complex flavors, as well as the efficiency advantages of using pellet hops, suggesting a reduction in dry hop loads by blending or solely using pellets.
