| REQ: Hop Help!!! I am new to home brewing and am brewing recipe that calls for
1 oz. of tettanger hops for the first 60 min. of the boil. I just
noticed that the owner of the brew store I frequent gave me "German
Tettnang" hops. Is this the same thing? If not, can I use them in my
recipe without much difference in flavor? Problem is that I have
already started brewing and the brew store is closed on Sundays and
Mondays.
Any help is appreciated. If it helps the recips is posted below...
