A hop conditioning procedure was developed that allows small producers to market it in an economical and practical way, generating a quality product that can be accepted by craft and industrial breweries. This new commercialization format, which we call L100, consists of ground hops and vacuum packaged in "100-gram ingots" and emerges as an alternative to the T-90 pellet. The L100 format aims to enable small producers to store, conserve and market their productions, increase the supply of hops produced in Argentina and offer a product according to the needs of the beer industry
