I sure hope he knows how many hops we use: actual weights would be useful - I'm thinking it's probably not a very good deal.

Here's reply #1 I got back...

and here's reply #2...

Don't have scales but I would say 40-50 hops per bag and they are dry.

Jesus.........

The email I got back said something to the effect of "four or five handfulls for $12 for the Chinook." He'd better have mitts the size of Andre the Giant, cuz I want at least a half pound for that price.

I'm more concerned about the unknown drying and storage method. I have half a mind to call the guy (or gal) just to see what condition they are in. If they were processed ok, it could be great to have a local source of hops. I'm betting its these guys - I was talking to them about a few days before this kijiji ad showed up and they instill me with a whole lot of confidence that they knew how to handle hops. Maybe they just need a little education
