I have an IPA that ended up without enough bittering hops in the long boil ( overstated alpha acids most likely). What I'm thinking of doing is a small boil with an ounce or two of hopps for 60+ minutes, filtering or straining, and adding the water to the keg of IPA. I also thought about using a half gallon or so of the IPA for this reboil. I haven't heard of anyone else doing this, what are the problems? The boil should deplete any free oxygen, so oxygenation shouldn't be an issue. Any thoughts?
