About how many gallons does everyone use during the boil for an extract brew?
a lot of people say a lot of things.
how do the people in this forum weigh in?
the reason i asked is for my short extract batches i have been doing a one gallon boil and using the 4 gallons to cool it
what if anything does the low volume boil do other than save time
(boils quicker cools faster)
i assume more flavor will be left behind from steeping grains in larger volumes?
