Submission Instructions

• Hop samples can be dry cones (dry each sample down to approximately 10% moisture); wet cones; or pellets. It is important that your sample be representative. We suggest you select samples from at least four different places.

• Hopyard: select from different plants and locations
• Piled wet, dry, or pelletized: select from the bottom, top, and sides
• Bagged or baled: select from different bags/bales and locations within

• Each sample must be at least 100g
• Clearly label each sample package with the same unique ‘client sample identification’ you indicated on the sample submission form
• Packaging tips: 

• Remove air to vacuum seal the package
• Place contents in a plastic bag; avoid clear plastic bags if possible; opaque is best
