Rakau showcases aromas of Passion fruit, peach, apricot. Typical alpha acids are around 8.9 percent, giving you plenty of room to tune bitterness and aroma.
With enough alpha acids for bittering and plenty of expressive oils, this hop works well from first wort additions through whirlpool and dry hopping. Offered in classic T-90 pellet form, it is easy to store, measure, and use in any home brewery. The 1 oz size is perfect for test batches, recipe trials, or topping up a hop schedule.
For a standard 5 gallon batch, a single hop schedule works very well. Use a modest 0.5 to 0.75 ounce addition at 60 minutes, then follow with 1 to 3 ounces split between whirlpool and dry hopping. Its moderate alpha acid level makes it easy to dial in a balanced bitterness.
