Just wondering, for now I am doing partial mash brewing and will be buying a 9gallon brew pot. Is there any difference in quality by doing a full boil over a partial boil? I remember reading that there is a difference in color of the final beer, also that you have to make some adjustments in hopping (possibly malt extracts too I cant remember) if you are going to do a full volume boil. If someone could clear this up that would be awesome, thanks.
Side note, can someone explain specific gravity.. I get the basics, it's the density of wort with sugars versus the density of water. Does that mean all final gravities going to be around the same (because all sugar has been "eaten" by yeast and its going to be close to the specific gravity of water)?
