Spectrum Citra® Hop Extract – 100% Pure Hop Aroma
Spectrum Citra Hop Extract for Concentrated Citra Aroma
Spectrum Citra is a flowable hop extract format for brewers who want concentrated Citra-style aroma with less vegetal load than heavy pellet dry hopping. It is built for late-stage aroma work where citrus, tropical fruit, and bright modern hop character are the goal.
Use Spectrum Citra as an aroma-focused tool rather than a direct replacement for every traditional hop addition. It is most useful in hop-forward beer where dry-hop intensity, beer yield, and precise dosing matter. Follow the current supplier directions for dosage, timing, mixing, oxygen control, and storage.
Best uses
- Aroma target: Citra-style citrus, tropical fruit, lime, grapefruit, and bright hop character.
- Process fit: fermentation-side or post-fermentation aroma additions when supplier guidance supports the workflow.
- Beer styles: pale ale, IPA, hazy IPA, double IPA, and other hop-forward beer.
- Why use it: concentrated aroma with less hop solids, less vegetal matter, and cleaner late-stage dosing.
Brewing notes
Keep oxygen exposure low, dose carefully, and taste the beer in context. Spectrum Citra can intensify citrus-forward aroma, but the finished profile still depends on the base recipe, pellet-hop schedule, yeast, fermentation profile, and packaging discipline.
