I pointed out to the professor that this work reported much higher extraction efficiency for some components than he reckoned, but I could tell he wasn't listening.StringersBeerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12573068197944669997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1634985112809013944.post-23109589641991712672014-08-15T21:03:16.048+01:002014-08-15T21:03:16.048+01:00... and there's much much more here [pdf - big...... and there's much much more <a href="http://ir.library.oregonstate.edu/xmlui/bitstream/handle/1957/34093/Wolfe_thesis.pdf?sequence=1" rel="nofollow">here</a> [pdf - big] on how quickly dry-hopping can work (hours rather than days).StringersBeerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12573068197944669997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1634985112809013944.post-90021569546792398002014-08-15T14:10:26.359+01:002014-08-15T14:10:26.359+01:00Yep, the things people measure for are, I suppose,...Yep, the things people measure for are, I suppose, markers for all the other stuff that's in there.StringersBeerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12573068197944669997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1634985112809013944.post-79968991580027523412014-08-14T15:52:33.588+01:002014-08-14T15:52:33.588+01:00The report you mention does admit it had to limit ...The report you mention does admit it had to limit the number of compounds it looked at. Perhaps it missed an important one that is distorted by heat? I'd say so from my experience.<br /><br />Most experts on hops agree there are hundreds of compounds responsible for the flavours and aromas in beer.<br /><br />I'd say there is no substitute to tasting the damn beer and then deciding if it was worth the effort.<br /><br />Having said that, research is important and of course we should continue to consider if we are doing things in the most appropriate and cost effective way.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11319272987951077205noreply@blogger.com
