I have searched the forum and found enough info to make my head spin.
When brewing extract and since most extract recipes say to start steeping the grain and boil in a small amount of water, then add water at the end.
I have a 10 gallon pot and have a decent gas turkey fryer type burner. So is there a recommended method for my setup?
I made 1 batch so far and steeped in 5 gallons and boiled that. I only had to add 1/2 gallon to top off 5 gallons.
Also, for full boils, so i start with 5 gallons of water or more? I would assume if i started with 6 gallons as i have read from some people, my batch would have been more of a 5.5 gallon batch
