They both work well but cones/flowers are easier to remove. I think that pellets are easier to handle when bagged up because they tend to "fall apart" in the wort | |

The compressed, pelleted hops can form a lot of "dross" in the brew that can be hard to filter or separate when racking or bottling. IMHO it is possible to add dry hops before fermentation is complete, and in some aspects this might be a good idea as it allows a "CO2 blanket" to re-establish over the brew post addition. Its a moot point. | |
