I am a week into my second batch with is a True Brew Amber Ale. I have learned that kit instructions should be only used as a guide, if at all. This was my first boil kit so being new to the hobby, I wanted to keep it fairly simple. Instructions stated to bring the water to a boil, remove from heat, add LME, DME, and hop pellets, stir until disolved, return to heat until it foams, remove from heat until foaming stops, return to heat and boil for 20 - 30 minutes.
So now I am a week in and everything is running smoothly, but now I hear that you should never boil LME.
Just wanted to find out what others think about this. Any responses would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
