Beer Snob said:Sorry I misunderstood the question. I can't see noticing a difference at all. I suppose some might say that there is a difference. Countess awards have been won without doing full boils. What are you doing now? There seems to be so many other things that would bring about a certain difference in taste that doing a full boil on extract does not seem worth it.

hoppedup said:well ive always brewed a hybrid of extract and grain beer. the grains being used primarily for character rather than for producing fermentable sugars. well if its not going to make too much a difference than ill just keep doing what im doing which is 2 gal wort and 3 gal springwater in fermenter. (i dont use springwater for the boil or steeping grains tho)
