I've simulated this in BeerSmith 2, but I wanted to see if my understanding of this is correct.
I have a recipe kit that was intended to be done as a partial boil (3 gal) with top off water added at the end. The recipe takes the high wort concentration into account and adds enough Hops to correct for the less efficient hop utilization when using all the extract in 3 gallons on water.
I want to do a full boil (a little over 6 gallons to end up with 5.25 going into the fermenter) but also do late extract addition (say 2 pounds extract at the beginning and another 3.5 at flameout).
In order to create the same beer that the recipe kit intended, I will need to reduce the amount of hops added, correct?
I know it depends on the recipe, but in general it looks like it'll take a little more than half the hops. Am I on the right track?
