"I do 20-30 minute boils. I really think with hopped extract you could really do 5?"
**********************
Re Bader...no need to boil extract at all unless adding hops and/or steeping grains, and then he recommends boiling with only one cup dme/lme, then adding all the remaining extract after boiling.
Others--mostly on beer forums--insist/recommend boiling at least half your extract anyway, and the other half after boiling--although theyclaim to go along w/the late extract thing.
Strange, huh?
