I can't find a clear answer on this. Some say add cinnamon 15-5 minutes left in the boil, great results. Others say never add cinnamon sticks to a boil because it will produce tannins thus add them to a primary/secondary only.
What has been your experience? BeerSmith when I added cinnamon said add them 5 minutes left in the boil by default, and that's what I did. Now it has me worried that the boiling wort yielded tannins into my beer.
This is my first time using cinnamon as a spice.
Thanks for your input.
