I have been brewing with Mr.Beer kits. Im thinking about moving up to 5 gallon batches. Most of the instructions I have read, indicate that for 5 gallon extract batch you begin with a 2-1/2 gallon boil. add the remaining 2-1/2 gallons to fermenter once boil has been completed.
My question is this, could you possibly achieve the same result with a 1-1/2 gallon wort boil, and then add 3-1/2 gallons of water to the fermenter. Thanks for your attention. TonyK
