<--Noob. Winemaker for years, moving on to something better. More room to experiment, can drink it sooner.
I have a BB kit in the primary now. Used partial boil for that.
I bought an Irish Stout BB kit, but also hooked up with a new Turkey Fryer that will be christened today for the next batch on a full boil instead.
I've seen conflicting advice on the hop additions when taking a kit from partial to full boil. Some say to cut back on the bittering hops, since it's a lower gravity boil. Others say it doesn't matter.
Bittering hops are Pallisades 1.25oz 6.7%, add at beginning of boil.
Aroma are German Spalt select, 1.5oz, 2.0% at 5 minutes remaining.
I'm leaning towards following the hop schedule as originally written.
Suggestions?
