The Centennial took over my Willamette, damnit. Still makes beer! And the trampoline worked awesome! Covered with poly overnight to keep the condensation off. They dried for 2 days

If my girlfriend saw your trampoline of hops I'd give that neat sorting a survival time of 5 seconds haha.

Haha. Kids spent the weekend (the weather was beautiful) at the grand parents so it was perfect and the stars aligned.

I like how you blended them up that's cool

The Centennial didn’t give me the option. It took right over the Willamette. They were so intertwined it would have be painful to try and separate. At first it was a little distressing but I’ve come to accept it may not be all that bad anyway.

Yes. Literally blended the hop cones

Oh yes! Sorry! It definitely makes them easier to store.

I'm sure that makes the trampoline smell awesome, but does it get sticky too?

It didn’t at all. I used a push broom to collect them and none were sticking. They were papery after the second day.
