So I am going to write down a recipe I am trying to follow.
Place crushed crystal malt in water and steep at 155 degrees for 30 minutes. Removed spent grains and add extracts, 1 and a half ounces cascade hops and gypsum. Boil for 1 hour, adding the irish moss for the last 10 minutes. Turn off heat, add 2 ounces of Cascade hops, and steep for 10 minutes. Cool wort and pitch yeast.
Am I supposed to turn off all the heat and let the finishing 2 ounces of hops just sit there for 10 minutes. There will not be any chance of contamination because I am letting it sit? Also after the hour do I just leave the 1 and half cascade boiling hops in with the finishing hops and take both of them out at the end. Or do I take the boiling hops out and then just put in the finishing hops for the last 10 minutes? Thanks for the advice on this recipe?
