Boiling hops?

[Stellarstar]

Hello I found this recipe for budvar and want to know when boiling for 60min with hops is it always at a steady boil or more of a simmer? And the recipe calls for polyclar when do I add that. Cheers

Boil is always ideally a rolling boil, regardless of your hop additions or timing.
