the recipe i am making calls for a 60 min boil, it is to yield a 5 gallons.
my question is after extracting my wert from the grains i end up with 6.5 gallons, so therefore i need to boil this down to 5 gallons, at what point should i start my sixty minute timer for the boil? should i wait till its at 5 gallons or should i just start timing it right away and if it gets boiled down to 5 gallons before 60 min, i will continue to boil till i reach 60 min. also should i add my hops and continue as normal during this 60 min boil?![Drunk :drunk: :drunk:](https://cdn.homebrewtalk.com/smilies/sdrinking-100-155.gif)
