This standard applies to compressed hops compressed into packages after baking and crushed and compressed into shape. Reference standardswwW.bzxz.Net
GB10347.2 Sampling and test methods for compressed hops and hop pellets Terminology
Compressed hops
In a packaging box of a certain volume, packing materials are placed, and hop cones that have been baked and rehydrated are added in batches, and the hop cones are pressed several times to form a package.
3.2 Brown flower pieces
Flower pieces that are light brown to brown are called brown flower pieces. Only when the brown part exceeds one-third of the flower piece area can they be called brown flower pieces.
3.3 Disintegration time
Put the hop pellets into boiling water and start timing immediately. The time when the hop pellets expand rapidly and become loose is called the disintegration time, measured in seconds.
3.4 ​​Loose particles
The loose particles are smaller than half the diameter of the normal particles. Technical requirements

Inspection rules
5.1 Batch number
5.1.1 Hops of the same variety in the same production site, picked, roasted, moistened, and packaged at the same time are the same batch number. Each production site shall be numbered in sequence from the first package produced on the day of commencement each year, and the roasting date shall be indicated. 5.1.2 Hops pellets processed in the same period shall have the same batch number and shall indicate the processing date. 5.1.3 To ensure accurate inspection, the batch size of each batch of compressed hops shall not exceed 600 packages and may be divided into several small batches according to production conditions.
5.1.4 Each batch of compressed hops and hop pellets shall be accompanied by a quality inspection certificate with the quantity and weight indicated. 5.2 Sampling
10347.2.
5.3 Inspection
5.3.1 The technical supervision department of the production site shall inspect the products produced and processed in accordance with this standard and GB10347.2 to ensure that all products produced meet the requirements of this standard. 5.3.2 The consignee shall conduct an inspection immediately after receiving the goods. If any indicator does not meet the corresponding technical requirements of this standard, it may take double the number of samples for re-inspection and use the re-inspection results as the basis for evaluation. 5.3.3 In foreign trade, if the test items, packaging specifications and acceptance rules need to be changed, the relevant parties may agree on it. 6 Marking, packaging, transportation and storage
