FLEX Flowable Hop Extract (2 kilogram Jugs)

FLEX® is the better way to bitter!

FLEX has many advantages:
1. It is stable and can be stored for 18 months with negligible loss of brewing value.
2. Alpha acids utilization using FLEX in the kettle is better than whole hops and hop pellets; typically, between 10% and 20%, relative.
3. FLEX is extremely uniform and pourable at room temperature, with no need for sophisticated dosing equipment.
4. The alpha acids content is within a tight range, targeted at 65%.
5. Shipping, storage weight and volume are substantially reduced as only the hop’s extracted material is retained and packaged (typically less than 25% of the original hop material for high-alpha hops).
