I brewed my first 1 week ago. It was an Extra Pale Ale Extract kit from Northern Brewer. The instructions said to boil 2.5 gallons of water for the mash and add the additional cold water to the carboy.
I deviated from the reciped and did a full boil of 5 gallons and then topped off to 5 gallons once the wort was added to the carboy.
Is there any advantage to doing a full boil? Or should I stick with the instructions next time?
Thanks for your help!
