I had originally planned to do a late LME addition (75% or so) for my first batch last weekend.

However, I changed my mind last minute after reading several posts here that said you only want to do a late addition if it's a partial boil.

As Jerry Seinfeld said...."what's the deal, with that?"

Sorry to drag up an old thread but i did my first extract and grains brew recently so what i want to know is:

1. Does anyone know if Hopville's late addition means at flameout or with 15 mins to go?

2. If Hopville's Calculus does in fact count late additions at flameout, can I not just boil up the rest of my DME in a seperate pan and just add it to the fermentor? It seems it would make life so much easier.

Cheers folks

1. whether it's flameout or last 10 mins, there probably isn't that great a difference. so you can go with 0 min, or go with 10... the difference will be negligible, IMO.

2. yes you can, assuming that you add that extra DME before you pitch the yeast. if it's immediately after the boil & before the yeast is pitched, then there shouldn't be a difference. if you brew a high-gravity beer, wait for it to ferment out and THEN add the extra DME, you could potentially have issues (yeast could be maxed out).

Oh yeah I add the dme before pitching the yeast. The SG was only 1.051 so no big deal. Hopefully will be bottled by next friday and ready for drinking in June

Well if one is doing all extract there is nothing in the boil except water and hops! If you go by a regular hop schedule which was formulated for recipes with wort in the boil won't you get the most bitter beer in history? Even if boiling steeped, or partial mash wort with late extract additions won't the hop amounts (at least the bittering ones) have to be altered pretty drastically? Obviously this would be for unhopped extract. You would have to go to like half the hops and a 30 minute boil for all extract and maybe half the hops and maybe a 60 minute boil for partial mash? Or does the late addition mute the hops down to the same IBU's as if you had added at the first of the boil?
