So I have a clone of Heady Topper going in primary right now and once I rack into secondary I really don't want that yeast cake going to waste. I was hoping to do a quick extract brew to take advantage of this amazing yeast (doing a peaches and cream ale, mmmmm Conan).
The only thing is I have maybe a 2 hour window to do the brew. So obviously not doing an AG brew, my first extract in a while. I was hoping to go from start to finish in under an hour and a half; keeping boil time to 20 minutes or less. I was going to use CO2 Hop extract for the bittering. Does anyone have an experience with using Hop Extract at this short of a boil time? Does it impart a strong hop flavor? Less bitterness than if used in 60+ minute boil?
Thanks
