If you are interested in testing hops for alpha acid content, the International ASBC accepted method works best! Determination of the total hops alpha & beta acids by HPLC (High-Performance Liquid Chromatography)
(Hops-14) ASBC method for the determination of alpha and beta acids by HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography). Samples are extracted and injected onto the chromatograph. The column separation yields results for % total alpha acids, cohumulone (as a % of total alpha acids), % total beta acids, and colupulone (as a % of the total beta acids). AAR Lab is great at testing hops for alpha acid content!
(Hops-4C) ASBC method for the determination of moisture content utilizing our low temperature drying oven to preserve the volatile essential oil content that is not considered water, providing more accurate results. This value is important as it allows the grower/producer to convert a submitted "wet" sample to a theoretical alpha/beta acid content of the hops at your finished drying moisture content, typically ~10%. Results are provided as % moisture and % dry matter.
