I cant make heads or tails of this,,some books say to add half of the extract at the end of the boil for hop utilisation,yet some say you MUST boil extract for an hour to reduce DME/S whatever it's called(lol)....what to do?
Boiling LME will caramelize & darken easier then DME in the boil. That's why I use 1-2lb od plain DME in the boil,adding remaining DME & all the LME at flame out. Lighter color,cleaner flavor. And no twang.
This works equally as well for full and partial boils?
Huh. Interesting. I never thought of it that way vs full boil volume. That explains it with the PB. But in a full boil,with all the DME/LME added right at the beginning,wouldn't that be going right back to the caramelized,twang thang??
