Hello Homebrewers,
I have a question about the amount of water that should be added to the kettle when boiling a batch with extract. I only have a 5 gallon pot so There is no real way to boil a full batch.
What I am really looking to know is if there is some type of formula I should follow based on the amount of extract I am using and other ingredients? Should I just add as much liquid to the pot as it will hold without boiling over? Or is there a calculation as to the amount I should used based on the recipe?
I looked around already and found misc. information on this but nothing definitive. Any info is appreciated
Thanks!
