hi everyone.
would like to make a braggot.
my question is do i need to boil my malt extract for an hour if i am not adding any thing else to it.
5 gallon batch.
1.8 kg light malt extract
500 g amber DME
6 lbs of honey
my thinking is to boil the dme for 20 mins and add the malt extract as soon as the DME has disolved, boil 15 mins to sterlise, add honey to fermentor, pour in wort, and top up to 5 gallons.
thinking of disolving wort in 7 litres of water, this is the biggest stockpot i can get indoors, my outdoor burner has cracked and so limited till next one arrives next week.
