Boil question!

[zhubbell]

It's my first all grain batch...
Here is a pic at 10 mins into the 90 min boil

Here's 35 minutes in

What is that particulate in the wort now?? Did I do something wrong?

Looks good to me. It could be bits of grain, but to me it looks like break material/proteins. That is normal. The fact that your wort is looking incredibly clear is a great sign.

Cheers!

That is hot break, mostly large proteins, it's perfectly normal You see this more pronounced in AG batches, as the hot break has already been done in your extract syrups or powders.

Very glad to hear, I've been looking forward to brewing this recipe for a couple months now!

Normal....protein precipitate...commonly known as break material. Whirpool at the close of boil and leave most of it behind in the kettle.
