Just got the latest BYO issue and found it had a Nugget Nectar extract recipe on page 12. I had two questions about this recipe and would welcome some advice.
1. The recipe states that you steep the grains for 30 minutes and you boil for 60 minutes. It states that 1.5 oz of Nugget goes in at 90 minutes. Am I to understand that this is a FWH and goes in when steeping, or is the 60 minute boil really a 90 minute boil or is it really a 60 minute boil and the hops go in at 60 minutes?
2. The recipe states that after steeping you should rinse the grains in "hot water". What do you think "hot" means? 170 degree like AG sparging or just hot tap water?
Thanks in advance for your replies.
