In another recent thread, the topic of adding you LME right before flameout came up. I didn't want to hijack that thread so I thought I would start a new one...
So, to those of you that use this method, do you normally do it right before flameout, 5 minutes prior, or what?
Do most extract brewers use this method?
Is this only beneficial for LME, or should one practice the same technique using DME?
Please elaborate...
Oh yea, one more question - this one regarding full-boil, vs. partial... I have a 7 gallon brew pot, so I'm a little nervous doing a full-Boil with only 2 gallons of headroom. So would it be beneficial to boil 4 gallons of water, only having to add one gallon later?
Thanks,
Brad
