What is Cascade CO₂ Hop Extract?
CO₂ Hop Extract is a concentrated hop resin created through a carbon dioxide extraction process. The extract contains the valuable bittering components of hops in a highly concentrated format, allowing brewers to achieve predictable bitterness without adding large quantities of hop pellets.
Cascade CO₂ Hop Extract is commonly used by breweries looking for:
- Precise bitterness adjustments
- Improved brewing efficiency
- Reduced trub formation
- Better consistency across production batches
- Easier IBU management
Brewing Applications
Cascade CO₂ Hop Extract is ideal for:
🍺 American Pale Ales
🍺 IPAs
🍺 Session IPAs
🍺 Lagers
🍺 Amber Ales
🍺 Craft beer production
🍺 Commercial brewing applications
Typically added pre-fermentation, it allows brewers to adjust bitterness to their exact target IBU level.

Understanding GMA
CO₂ Hop Extracts are sold by grams of alpha acid (GMA).
A 150 GMA package contains the concentrated resin extracted from approximately 2–6 pounds of hop pellets, depending on the original hop alpha acid content.
GMA Calculation:
(Pounds of hop pellets) × 454 g × (% Alpha Acid) = GMA
This allows brewers to accurately calculate the equivalent hop extract addition needed to reach their desired bitterness.
