I'm currently 20 minutes into my 1 hour boil. I'm doing the Yooper's Dead guy extract clone. I have 1 oz perle and 1 oz saaz and the hop schedule is as follows. 1/4 perle @ 30, 1/4 perle @ 5, and 1/4oz saaz at 5. Instead of opening the whole OZ of saaz could I just use 1/4oz perle i have left? I'm curious if it would make a big difference. If so, I have a irish red ale in primary (1 week in) and was wondering if i could use the 1/2oz of the perle and the 3/4oz left from the saaz to dry hop it. Also, the malts are 4lbs LME and 4lbs DME, I've already added the LME and my plan is late addition of the DME. I can do that right to help avoid extract twang?
I think thats all for now... may be back in a minute. lol.
thanks for the help!
Edit: I have not had a hot break yet and im 30 minutes in... Normal? I normally always get a hot break.
