Undesirable hop constituents such as hard resins, deteriorated resins, tannins, polyphenols, nitrates, hop protection chemicals, fats and waxes are reduced. Hopsteiner CO2 hop extract will produce a beer similar to or better than traditional hopping methods.

Hopsteiner CO2 Extract is produced by state of the art carbon dioxide extraction technology and is produced as a supercritical CO2 hop extract. Carbon dioxide is a natural solvent, eliminating the concern of residual solvent that is always present when using hop extract produced with hexane or methylene chloride solvents.

Hopsteiner CO2 Extract provides the same type of bitterness that is acquired from traditional hopping. Since nearly all the original hop's alpha-acids are in Hopsteiner CO2 Extract, the same varietal bitterness profile is maintained.

Hopsteiner CO2 Extract duplicates the hop aroma of traditional hopping. Since nearly all the essential hop oils remain in Hopsteiner CO2 Extract, the same varietal aroma profile is maintained.

Hopsteiner CO2 Extract is an extremely stable hop extract and is therefore the best long term method to preserve hop alpha-acids and essential oils. When stored in sealed containers at cool temperatures, Hopsteiner@ C02 Extract will maintain its integrity for years. Recommended storage temperatures are 10OF(-120C) minimum and 771F (250C) maximum. The reduced size and improved storability compared to baled hops lowers costs associated with handling, storage, shipping and alpha loss.
