ok, so how important is getting a hot break with your extract? more info:
ive been doing partial mash's with a partial boil.
ive also been adding all of the extract i need at the very end.
ok, now is it necessary/advised/helpful to let my wort return to a boil after adding the extract (which is what ive been doing) or can i just leave the heat off and start cooling 10 min sooner (about what it takes me to take the pot off heat, add the lme, and dissolve it off of the bottom of the pot, and return to boil) ?
