To Ted, I am on a "wait and see" with how much I wind up with. I would like to do a 10 gallon batch with the homegrown hops and some organic malt. <br/><br/>I figure if worse comes to worse I'll just use some other stuff for bittering and use all my stuff for the flavor.

I'd love to hear about how they add to your upcoming beers.<br/><br/>You brew such large batches, will you have enough, or will you brew a smaller batch?<br/><br/>I'll be harvesting a bunch of Nugget hops from a friend's MASSIVE hop vine on the South side of Chicago. I'll post photos of it. Also, will be making a fresh hop harvest ale with them. Your hops are looking great! I’d love to hear about how they add to your upcoming beers.

You brew such large batches, will you have enough, or will you brew a smaller batch?
