Hi, I was planning on brewing a Pliny clone today with one of my brew buddies, but he had to travel for work so I am now flying solo. However, he was the one with a larger kettle, so I only have my own gear to work with now.
I have a 7 gal kettle and this is a 6 gallon batch.
Would it be a terrible idea to collect my first runnings, start boiling them, collect the second runnings, add a portion to kettle and 30 min later add the rest? I know my hop utilization and IBUs will be off but that's the only thing I can think of outside of running out a getting a new kettle. This recipe uses first wort hops and hop extract at 90min but then no hop additions until 45 min left.
Here's the recipe: http://www.northernbrewer.com/documentation/allgrain/AG-PlinianLegacy.pdf
Thanks!
