    Keeping lid on pot during boil

    Keeping lid on pot during boil

    I will be using a Nuwave PIC Pro to boil my next batch of beer. For a 3 gallon boil it took about 50 minutes to get there it has a strong boil with lid on but when removing lid it tapers off to light boil. How will leaving lid on affect it.

    Filtering out hops

    I use a nylon grain bag for the hops. I tie it to the brew pot handle so it doesn't touch bottom and when it's time ti add additional hops I just untie it and dump the hops in the bag and retie. Works great and keeps hop trub out of wort. the usual mesh hop bags are useless. DC

    Sanitizing the cherrys for homebrew?

    If they're frozen you won't need tosanitize them or crack them. If they are fresh you should crack them and soak them in vodka for about 20 minutes, then add the cherries, minus the vodka. you can sanitize a strainer to strain the cherries. DC
