Hey all!
I'll be attempting to do my first batch this weekend with a Hop Head Double IPA Kit from Midwest.
Two questions I have. I have a pot that can handle 6 1/2 gallons. I would like to do a full boil. In y'all's collective opinion. Can that pot handle it? If not, my options may include getting a larger pot before hand.
The second question. What different will I have to do to the recipe to adjust for a full boil? Forgive me if I may not have asked this question the right way.
Here is the recipe:
9.3 lbs. Gold Malt extract
4 oz. Aromatic
12 oz. Caramel 60°L
8 oz. Victory specialty grains
1 oz. Chinook
1 oz. Cascade
1 oz. Centennial
1 oz. Crystal
2 oz. Leaf (dry hop)
SG 1.70-1.74
FG 1.16-1.18
