I do a 60 minute boil following kettle souring a 50/50 2 row to wheat base. During this boil I am killing off lacto, hopping for bittering, making sure I drive off DMS plus I am very grooved into boil losses to arrive at my volume amounts into fermenter. This also helps me nail down my post boil OG.
A friend asked for my recipe and questioned why I did a 60 minute boil, so I explained my reasons as listed above. There is a "no boil" kettle sour recipe floating around that uses extract. That may have introduced some concerns or questions, but extract at least is not typically concerned with DMS.
Has anyone thought of reduced boil times...or no boil times using an all grain recipe? This may be an old dog-new trick process for me, but as I stated above, I'd be hesitant to change the 60 minute boil that works for me.
Thoughts?
