    Whirlflic and late addition LME

    Hi all, I brew only extract beers. I've been wanting to withold extract and add it late to reduce darkening the wort. I also want to use Whirlfloc to help clear it. My question is two parts, really: I'm reading that "late" for a late addition is like 45 minutes into the boil. Is that right...
