I want to get my starter ready for the weekend, but I am out of DME and the LHBS is closed. I do have a pound of pale malt looking for a purpose, so I just put it in the mash tun to get very fermentable extract.
I don't plan on hopping the wort, since it is just going into a starter, so I don't have isomerize the alphas. What is the minimum time I need to boil?
I know I need to let the proteins coagulate and also sanitize the wort, but I don't need to worry about concentrating the wort. I plan to skim the proteins after the hot break.
Can I get away with 15 minutes rolling boil?
