Description
HopBurst Saaz – Saaz hop oil for dry hopping
HopBurst Saaz is extracted oil from the classic Czech hop Saaz and gives an effect similar to dry hopping. It gives a higher yield and a more consistent aroma, without the variation that comes with traditional dry hopping. HopBurst from Totally Natural Solutions is a flowable, natural 100% hop extract made by extraction and distillation. It gives a dry-hopped aroma characteristic of the variety, without hop debris in the beer. The 20 ml pouch is intended for approx. 20 litres of beer.

How to use HopBurst Saaz
Dosage: one 20 ml pouch per approx. 20 litres of beer. Add HopBurst to the beer after fermentation, for example in a secondary fermenter, keg or bright beer tank, and mix gently. 2–24 hours of contact time is enough for full flavour and aroma. Totally Natural Solutions states that utilisation is around 80% when HopBurst is added late in fermentation, and up to 100% when dosed directly into finished beer.
Store at room temperature, between 5 and 25 °C. HopBurst is also available in concentrated form in larger units for breweries. Contact us for a quote.
