So I've typically plunked my container of LME in HOT water for about 20 min priort to adding it to the brew kettle, simply to make it easier to get most of the liquid out of the containter. Might this be an issue?
Some of my brews (all of them extract) have had a slight clovish.. yeah, maybe licorice note to them. Based on what CrookedTail has offered here, the next batch, I'm going to go with as large of an amount of water for the boil as I think I can get away with w/o risking a boil over.
Cheers
I do the same thing to get my extract out of the container. I'm talking about if the extract sits in warm temps for weeks or even months.
