Got this from the Norther Brewer instructions. I thought that I might need more hops but I need less. 15%-25% less. Hmmmmmm. Going to brew their Cream Ale kit this weekend. Can't wait for my 36Qt pot to get here.
From NB Kit instructions:
Adjustments for full-volume boils. If your system is designed for a full-volume boil of 5-6 gallons, make the following adjustments to the procedures in the following steps:
* Step #1 - collect 5.5 to 6 gallons of water in the kettle.
* Step #5 - use 15% to 25% less bittering hops (any hop additions during the first 30 minutes of the boil) than called for in the kit inventory - e.g., use 3/4 to 7/8 oz instead of 1 oz; all other boil additions remain the same
* Step #6 - use a wort chiller to cool the wort
* Step #8 - add only enough water to reach 5 gallons
Do you have to do your steeping grains any differently if doing full vs. partial?
