Ok, I finally got back to brewing last night.. Batch #5, AHS promotional IPA..
This used 5oz of hops, and during the boil I noticed that there was alot of hop residue on the side of the pot during the boil. I stirred it back into the boil every 10 minutes or so, thinking that I don't want to lose the flavor.. After the boil, I left the residue in the pot instead of pouring it into my fermenter. The thinking on this was that the flavor had already boiled in and any residue left would just give me more trub to deal with later..
Thoughts?
