I'm doing a simple wheat beer extract kit this afternoon, the kit is just 6 lbs Wheat LME , 1 oz. of Willamette hops @ 60 min., and 1 oz. of Cascade @ 15. I want this brew to be very light in color, and understand that adding the LME @ flame out will keep carmellization down. The LME is in a sealed jug, so I'm assuming will be fairly bug free, so I shouldn't need to boil it at all. I also understand from the knowledge here that hop utilization will be higher with out the LME. I was thinking of using 3/4 of the Willamette @ 60, then add the rest with the Cascade @ 15 min. along with my wort chiller. Your thoughts? Thanks in advance
