The analytical values are typical for each variety at harvest time but values can vary among crop years, growing areas, growers, and with aging after harvest. * Alpha Acids are determined by ASBC spectrophotometric (Hops 6) in the USA. Alpha Acids for extracts are determined by HPLC (Hops 14) in the USA. ** Storage is percent remaining after 6 months at room temperature.  | |
